    what happened to Nagel ?

    Yes, Nagel and I are still diving but haven't stayed active on the boards. It's good to hear from some of you. I think Facebook has taken a lot of people's time these days.

    led dive light

    A lot has changed since I made my last dive light. I'm currently thinking about building a light around an LED MR16 bulb like this one. Green Creative 40811 - 7.7 Watt - LED - MR16 - 4000K And using a lithium battery, possibly a 26650. Also my plan would be to get away from the canister. If I...

    Help with ideas for new SCUBA area

    You probably won't have any luck getting permission from the state to put anything in the water. You might have to use the "don't ask, don't tell" policy.

    Punta Cana vs La Romana

    We are looking at coming to Dominican Republic this winter. I've heard that the diving is not very good in Punta Cana, so I was looking at the south side. I checked out the La Romana area, which seems to be better diving, but I keep hearing reports that the water on the beach is brown from a...

    finger lakes state park near columbia mo

    I have not dove it, but I did go check it out once. My guess is that the vis will be less than 3 feet, and the bottom will be very thick muck with a heavy moss cover, and probably no large rocks or walls. But who knows? I'd love to hear your report. Steve

    Current river dive

    Wow, we have revived a 6 year old thread! We have dove the current a few times around Doniphan Missouri. It's wide, warmer, and sometimes deep there, but the times we dove it the vis was not very good. I would like to try some of the upper areas where the vis would be more consistanly good...

    Suunto Cobra commputer locked up

    My Suunto Cobra computer locked up on my 2nd dive the other day. As I was descending I noticed that the depth was not changing. This happened once before and was resolved by taking the battery out and then replacing it. This time it is reading 10’ on the surface, and appears to be reading 10’...

    Norfork

    We had a good time diving Norfork last week. We got there just as all the storms were coming in. During the week, the lake rose 30 feet. The vis had been very good just before we got there, but started to drop in the run off areas. We did get several dives near the dam with about 30’ of vis...

    Curacao Breezes

    WicketsMom Thanks for the input. Was it hard to find trucks, as they don't seem to be as prevalent as they are in Bonaire? Also, what was the cost of the rental truck? No one answered my previous question; hopefully you would know the answer. Do a lot of the dive sites require an entrance...

    Your catfish sighting experiences

    I have never seen cat fish in very deep water, but I've heard that they are there. I hope to see one some day.

    Your catfish sighting experiences

    From my experience most of the fish in general are in the light zone. That would be the first 20 maybe 30 feet. In this area it is not uncommon to see giant schools of all kinds of fish. Sometimes it can feel like you’re in an aquarium. Below this level it gets very barren. It seems like...

    Curacao Breezes

    We are considering going to Curacao next December and staying at Breezes. We would appreciate any advice people have that have been there. For starters, what is the best way to handle the dives? Boat, bus, rental car, shore dive on house reef, etc.?
