Wife and I want to go on our honeymoon in the Maldives but I still want to get some dives in. Planning to stay at the Lux* South Ari Atoll and they seem to be using the chain Euro-Divers. Anyone have any experience with them or the resort? Seems a bit like a cattle boat...

Purchased new in 2007, used only 20 times, most likely less. Excellent condition. This is the older style farmer John and jacket without the hood. Don't need any more due to drysuit. Male Sizing - Pinnacle Aquatics Will post pictures soon but it is the black with blue accents style...

I know the Liquivision computers have sealed battery compartments, but do any of the other brands have that? It seems like too good an idea to NOT do. This coming from a guy who's flooding 2 computers.

Hi, I have a Nemo Wide but it ocassionally gives me random depths and temperatures, For example, on a surface interval I all of a sudden get a 1 minute dive to 115 ft. It beeps as it's a fast ascent alarm, and then shows a dive. Or during a dive in Bonaire, it measures the temperature at 40...

Hi, I was considering going down to the Keys (Largo or maybe Islamorada) for some diving and thought, how about taking rescue diver? Is there any quality dive instruction or is it pretty much all "read the book yourself then we'll go on a fun dive doing skills for 5 minutes?" like down in Roatan...

I just came back from a dive trip but noticed on the trip that the temperature reading was often very very wrong (It said bonaire water was 40 degrees F) and that it would suddenly say I did a dive to some depth up to 90 feet during my surface interval. It doesn't stay at the incorrect depth, it...

So as per Donna, Sam, Tim, and others who have requested, I have to write a class report. It's kinda long winded so if you manage to get through it all, thanks for putting up with my boring stream of consciousness writing and useless details. Here goes: Having gone to bed late (after some...

I just picked up 2 Asahi HP 100 tanks, and they were manufactured in 7-99 and 6-00. Are these the older types that trim poorly (heavy bottom) or are these of the new type? I did some searching and couldn't tell. Do the new Asahi tanks tanks trim balanced?

I was originally interested in fundies, but couldn't commit a week to it. However, I was told a bit about GUE primer. Having looked at the GUE website, basically primer is just the basic basic skills set for yourself (trim, buoyancy, etc) and fundies is skill set for team in addition to yourself?

I've been trying to see if people have any issues with the Phantom lone hose as opposed to the reg or miflex. Some have noted that miflex bows out or sometimes twists due to the routing. Anyone notice that with Phantoms?

Just throwing a feeler out there. There's a special that DNY has for 6/25 - 7/2 that's also applicable to the week before or after. I was considering going early. Anyone else interested? http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/dive-ny/329439-bonaire-dny-invasion-reserve-now.html 7 nights at The...

I had my Mares Nemo flood during a dive in sept. I dried it out as much as I could, left it drying for a day and then powered it up. It turned on, without any issues. I turned it off again and did not turn it on again until earlier in the month to prep for another dive. It now seems to be...

I noticed my wing has the outer fabric stitch that is coming apart. There's a 1/2" hole. This is nothing wrong with the bladder. Should I take it in for repairs or can I sow it back up, no problem?

Was thinking to get a bp/w setup, but needed some advice on a wing. Looking at the bouyancy calculator, it seems that I would need roughly 30 lbs with a 7mm farmer john (using 24/12 lb in the calculator) and an hp120. Is there any reason to get a 40 lb wing unless I'm going with a drysuit? I...

This is a used Zeagle 35lb bladder that comes off an Escape. It does not have the power inflator but you can get one from Zeagle Express for < 100. It was purchased 2 years ago by another member, I used it for 12 dives, then I sold my Zeagle, so I have no use for this. No problems, dives fine...

Is there any way to mount an bladder from an escape bcd on a backplate?

I have a Zeagle 911 large. It was purchased used earlier this year from ebay. It's missing the crotch strap and also the 911 tag on the left shoulder. It also has the older inflator, not the BX one. See links. I also have a 35 lb Zeagle escape bladder without the inflator, but it's easy enough...

I'm pretty sure this is a long shot, but is there a way to modify the proton octo to a proton metal octo? or at least make the proton more cold water capable?

I recently got padi nitrox certified and they introduced how to more accurately calculate equivalent depths and such, and was wondering, how come they don't give formulas for figuring out actual NDL, pressure groups, RNT and the like? And why don't they teach multi-level diving as almost all...

I was able to get one used (not in hand yet) but I was looking up this reg and it seems it's cold water capable and I can even get parts to turn it DIN as well as get it sealed for ice diving (which I hope to do next year). Is it also good enough to be used for tech diving? I'm still pretty new...
