    Where To Go, May 2019?

    Thank you everyone for your responses. All of my contact efforts, both in Dumaguete and Anilao were made via the emails listed on the resort websites. If we decide to go to Anilao I'll try again, now just have to decide if we want to give up a day of diving in order to travel from Dumaguete...

    Where To Go, May 2019?

    Hubby and I are making our 1st trip to the Philippines. We will be diving Tubbataha April 23-May 1st. We will be staying in the Philippines until May 12th, when we depart from Manilla. We'd like to do as much diving as possible in that time. We love both muck and reef diving. I expect we'll...

    Live Aboard Capsizes

    Even if Almighty Poseidon is hella pissed a WWD&S and that is the underlying cause of all of these events, that would make them linked but in no way could it be called a cascade.

    Live Aboard Capsizes

    We just got an email today that our Jan 26th 2016 trip is cancelled and they are offering us a refund on our deposit. They may also try and help us rebook our diving in Palau since we already have plane tickets and a week in Yap planned after Palau. We'll see how long it takes for the refund to...

    Malta Extradition

    @boulderjohn- Thank you for your well thought out and well written word of caution. The only facts I have are the one's from this thread and from the media accounts, which are notoriously suspect. However, as you pointed out here, there is a catch 22. It seems likely that the only way that the...

    Malta Extradition

    @Stephen.martin- I am very sorry for what you are going through. It sounds like the Maltese government agency responsible for this is both ignorant and run by lunatics. And you are a victim of red tape bureaucracy on the UK side. A collision of poor government decisions and you are caught in...

    Major bends in Rangiroa leads to a $7.8 million settlement

    Thank you Ken for this info- This does give us a very different perspective on events then the Undercurrent article did. And as you yourself point out, this is still only part of the story. It definitely highlights (yet again!) how unreliable media accounts of events can be. (You want to know...

    Major bends in Rangiroa leads to a $7.8 million settlement

    ---------- Post added May 29th, 2015 at 12:43 PM ---------- That is the point I was trying to make. It is a sad irony that from reading the article it would seem that the more able diver, who may have been able to overcome the issue and do a safe decompression dive had he not given most of his...

    Major bends in Rangiroa leads to a $7.8 million settlement

    "During the police investigation, Bernard said he was unaware Falk and Prickett had gone down after changing out a mask, but that didn't stop him from continuing his dive -- a violation, per French Polynesia law, of his role as divemaster to supervise all divers and make the group surface...
