Where can I find and read these stories?

Just a quick update, if anyone comes here looking. If you're cruising: Nassau is on Eastern time. We sailed out of New Orleans, on Central time zone. We sailed Carnival Conquest. We dove Stuart Coves: Their bus picks up at the port, but picks up on Eastern time. Luckily, their bus was...

Hmm. Thanks for the heads up Rascalsmom.

Booked our dive with Stuart Coves. Will do a 2 tank morning dive on May 9th. Looking forward to it. Thanks for everyone's help.

Jim, I agree. Good point. Everyone eventually ends up in a box, but nobody wants today to be THAT day. I agree 100% & I see your point.

Jim: Thank you for your thoughts. It is certainly something I need to look into more. From what I have heard & read from PADI (their website), the AOW is more in the water skills & specialty dives (navigation, night dives, deep dives, etc.). More that than a classroom course. Thank you for your...

As a certified PADI open water diver, we are allowed to dive to 60'. We all know the depth police sit at 60.5' waiting for us to exceed that max depth. For PADI, in order to complete one part of the Advanced Open Water Course, you must make a dive between 60-90 feet. This is considered their...

We are cruising. We will be in Nassau from 7a-5p. We have a morning dive schedule so that we are sure to get back to the port in time. They are aware of our cruise schedule. ---------- Post added April 17th, 2013 at 06:24 AM ---------- We would like to do our deep dives (60') while there, so...

Thanks for the quick responses! Yes, both, my buddy & I, are very conscious. Sadly tho, he doesn't frequent the forums. I consider this part of my "home work" before setting out into a new phase of diving. I always read others saying "do your home work & you'll be fine." So, here I am! :-)...

Hello. I'm a noob. Certified early last summer & have logged just over 30 dives. My dives have all been fresh water lakes. No salt, until this coming May. May 9th, I have booked 2 dives with Stuart Coves, along with my dive buddy, who was certified with me & has been my buddy on every lake dive...

I booked a dive w/ Stuarts for May 9th. I'm curious, is the bus that picks up at Atlantis, the same bus that picks up from the cruise ports? Pink & White? Any idea (guesstimate) how long the ride is from the cruise port?

Bryan, first let me say thank you for your helpful information and willingness to help. Out of all the sites and stuff I've looked at and found online, the bus thing is what keeps me coming back to thinking that booking Stuart Cove's is our best choice. BUT, I do have a few questions about the...

DiverSteve, thanks for the info. As I kept searching last night, I can across Stuart Cove's. Looking through their site, this might be our best bet. We port in Nassau at 7am & depart at 5. We would need to be at the Stuart Cove's facility by 8:30, but docking at 7, may give us enough time to...

We are Carnival cruising in May to Key West, Freeport, and Nassau. We are hoping to dive a wreck in Freeport. But as of now, we aren't having much luck. Our cruise doesn't offer a dive excursion. So, we must go outside the cruise ship to book a dive. We port in Freeport at 8am and depart at...

LSUFOOTBALLFAN: I use CheeseWhiz quiet abit when I want to look at bream up close. Squeeze a little of that out in the water and they go bonkers. I'm looking for something that will attract mainly catfish. Something I can tow with me as I dive. Use a weight to secure it after I reach a certain...

Mark, interesting suggestions there. I appreciate the time you took to post all these things. As I begin to create my own little feeder/attractor, I will keep all your suggestions on hand. Good stuff. Thanks.

Hello guys and gals. I was hoping to find some info, pics, suggestions, etc. on building an underwater fish feeder. I dive mostly freshwater lakes and see hundreds of fish on any given dive, but would like to put together some sort of feeder, that would attract mainly catfish, but any fish...

Welp, Im a n00b here. Will log dive number 10 this weekend. :cool2: Over my last couple of dives, my buddy and I have found - another buddies snorkel :shakehead: . After giggin him about it for a day or so, I was sent on a "rescue" mission for another buddy who dropped his mask and snorkel...

Done & complete. What a blast. My instructors were top shelf. Glad to have had them & all the DMs that helped them. From classroom, to confined water, to open water, all of them were simply, outstanding. Mr. Bill Richard & Mr. Tom Ham (The Dive Shop) were great & I'd recommend them to anyone...

We'll be on Degray. Hwy 7. I'm from El Dorado.
