thank you! That will be very helpful. I printed out a dive and took it to my instructor to ask about a deep stop violation and viola... nothing was annotated. lol

When I started my certification I needed 36lbs plus ankle weights. I am now without ankle weights and 26lbs. Cold water diving with a 7mm suit. I feel like if i take any breath at a safety stop I torpedo to the top. But at depth I feel like I'm constantly kicking in order not to keep descending...

Hi Hendrick: thanks for the fast response. The computer works quite fine as far as indicator segments. I hadn't really thought about battery being an issue because I bought the computer around the end of March this year. The sync problem has been an issue since the very first time I tried to...

I have about 40 dives and each one gets more and more frustrating for me. I seem to be able to stay somewhat where I want to be if I am moving but stop to look at something and I am usually plummeting to suck on an urchin. I have noticed that I am more probably at a 45 degree angel than...

Hi All: I have long hair and am extremely tender headed. After my first live-a-board trip I wanted to quit diving. My hair was so tangled even with a braid in it. I came across a DanglerDetangler and ordered one. I think it was 18 bucks with free shipping. I have the bang wrangler and that...

Hi There: Please don't flame me for what I am about to ask. I want to make sure I have these straight in my head: Buoyancy - how you float in the water either negatively(sinking), Positively (floating) or neither (neutral). Propulsion: How you move through the water... flutter kick...

Hello All: I was hoping someone could help me out with a downloading issue. Each time I connect my Sunnto Cobra to DM5, it seems to pick and choose what dives it wants to sync with. For example, this morning I attempted to sync my computer so view my recent live-a-board of nine dives. It only...

This is what I would like to know as well. I pencil in the annotations after I print but not sure why it just doesn't print automaticaly or at all. I wonder if there is a switch or tab somewhere that we are supposed to toggle. Hope to Know Soon, Glock34girl

I do understand your point and I know you weren't belittling the USCG. I'm saying that no responsible coastie would bring any motorized vessel into a crowded area like that so, even if they were dispatched the time would likely have been the same even if they took her dockside. If the USCG isn't...

i was in contact with DAN briefly and this is also what they mentioned. My local shop makes us sign up for the insurance. Period. I assumed all did. I was surprised to hear from DAN that it's not the case and not all do it despite it being free. I do hope someone contacted them. I think I also...

As a former Coastie that has recovered more divers than I care to remember... We would love to have the man power to watch an area like this however; the USCG is one of the smaller branches meaning many of the Coasties you see hold multiple qualifications. Work days start bright and early and...

the vessels name was Scubacat operated by Catalina Diver's Supply. I'm not sure if the skipper addressed it but I sure as hell Yelped it and haven't heard a single word back from them. Going through their reviews though it seemed par for the course. If Iam not allowed to post company names...

I was just chatting with my instructor friend about what I had posted about the large groups and as we were chatting I did recall some others there so I probably misspoke. Apologies! However; even with one or two extras.... That just seems like a lot of peeps in the water. Yikes! When we did our...

When I went there for my OW training I was observing classes going in and was wondering why they were so large. I counted 16 divers with one instructor in one class. I'm not suggesting that this is what happened to this woman but it is something I have always noticed out there.

Hi All: you our may already know this but Hulu+ has a pretty extensive selection of SCUBA diving shows and a few movies. Wreck diving, techie stuff and a whole selection of Dream Wrecks from around the world. Pretty cool for this newbie. I like that it involves the diving and the history. I...

This happened to me just this last weekend while on a live-a-board in the Channel Islands. I am new to diving with only 31 life time dives. All cold water. At any rate, we were aboard a 70 foot dive vessel with it's diver down flag flying. A while earlier we had noticed a smaller boat coming...
