    Snorkeling locations on NJ?

    A good area for snorkeling in NJ during summertime is Sedge Island Wildlife Management Area, near Barnegat inlet. The area is sand bottom, shallow with decent visibility, if you go over there try and do your snorkeling during the week, weekends you have way to many boaters! Last time I was there...

    Unusual Things That You've Found

    What is unusual that I find now, THE AMOUNT OF PLASTIC AND GARBAGE ON THE BOTTOM! When I was a kid growing up in Key Largo during the 70's and 80's, we would go diving every day and never ever see plastic or garbage on the bay side or the ocean bottom. Now you see it everywhere, it BS! For all...

    I'm a full time diver, being from Key Largo, I have been diving in beautiful waters down here from the reefs to the wrecks since I was 15. I feel very lucky to be down here most of the year, it's a beautiful location and I can dive the best reefs in the United States day and night. This is why...

    Cruise Ships Banned in Key West

    So true, especially between Christmas and New Year, RT 1 "Overseas Hwy" will be a 90 mile backup. Traffic is so bad heading south that Card Sound road is backed up for miles, this goes on for about 10 days. A trip from Key Largo to Key West will take about 2 1/2 to 3 hour drive, the same trip...

    I purchased the LUX in 2015, at the time LeasurePro had U.S. warranty and grey warranty, the website also had the two online but you can't purchase the grey online. LP is an authorized dealer and had a special agreement with Aqua Lung to sell grey market items in the store only. The grey market...

    Cruise Ships Banned in Key West

    Key West was a better place before the cruse ships started to port. Now Key West is so overcrowded, overpriced and commercialized, it's not a fun or relaxing place anymore.

    Don't blame me Z! I don't make the rules of corporate policy. I'm just saying that when you purchase grey market, don't expect the same support that you would get with a U.S. model.

    I will give you a sample, I purchased an Aqualung Legend LUX regulator from Leisurepro. The U.S. model with factory warranty card was $900 and grey market version with a Leisurepro warranty was $750. Authorized Aqualung dealer will look at the serial number, if the number is not a U.S. number...
