I'm trying my luck to see if I can see a female dive buddy interested in diving Bonaire in Mid-May (5/15- 5/22). I found a package the includes 8-day/ 7 nights at Captain Don's + 12 tank dive + shore diving @ $1000 for double occupancy. Unfortunately, the single supplement would've brought it up...

Thanks you two. I actually just remembered all the bruises I got from the last time I was on a Blackbeard's cruise ( Unfortunately my lack of agility led to many run-ins with the ladder and door knobs). I'll store the info for the future should I be up for a liveaboard again though. :D I'll...

Blackbeards is offering a weeklong trip in May leaving from Nassau to the Exumas. I wasn't sure if they've offfered this type of trip before, but has anyone been? It's supposed to follow the same route as the Aquacat. Also, I've read rumors that there's some lionfish going around the area...

Think I'm up for Sunday. Go ahead and PM me if you're still interested in going.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Think the way to go is just creative use of luggage. If someone can go camping for a month on a motorcycle, I can definitely figure out a way to go diving (excluding tank- just b/c i like all my body parts where they are right now). :D

I'm pretty sure strapping a rubbermaid daypacker on top of the back seat isn't such a great idea. Something about having easily over 1k worth of gear strapped on to the rear seat with rope going down the interstates says bad news... Though I can't quite put my finger on it.. =) I'm fine with...

Yep, I'm going to have to rig a waist strap. My current backpack has got a chest strap and waist strap, so it's good. But if someone can do a complete scuba rig, then that definitely motivates me to possibly try harder. I've seen some with fins in the sides of backpacks to keep stable, but...

Is it crazy?! So the idea has been forming in my mind of combining my two habits. So maybe someone has done this. I normally carry a laptop backpack with books and other various stuff packed into it. It gives it a good weight. So, I'm thinking of getting a dive backpack (esp. since I want...

Yeah, Saturday was really busy. Turns out rain didn't come on Sunday as expected. I got 61 degrees at 60 feet on Saturday, lots warmer than the 53 from 3 weekends ago.

Think the answer is that I don't need to worry about re-adjusting them after my original tweaks. So I'll just leave the settings as-is. Thank you much peeps.

I'll be heading there Sunday with a buddy to avoid the possible Saturday Dive Rite Demo crowd. If you change your mind, feel free to tag along. =)

I dove it 2 weekends ago and it was 55 degrees. I'm extremely afraid of the cold, but I was fine with a 7mm semi-dry, 7mm gloves, 3mm socks, 5mm boots and a 7mm hood. Of course, if I'd invest in a drysuit I think I might be able to get in the water quicker...

So I've got an Apeks ATX200 that I've been using. It just occurred to me that I should know more about what the lever thingy and the knob doo-dad does. :confused: When would you want to keep the venturi lever in the +/- position? I know + means possible freeflow and - eliminates it. But when...

How nice is Lake Rawlings? Its a 250 mile roundtrip drive so it seems kind of far to be going for a day trip... But I hope to make it down there some time, just used to diving once a week or every other week during the summer so looking for something that might involve more diving and less...

I'm a recent transplant from Austin, so I'm looking for some dive buddies. I know that Fisherville is nearby and they've got some diving. But I can't seem to find any info on temp, thermocline that sort of stuff. If anybody is up for blowing bubbles, let me know, my gear will be making it into...

Its $50 for 20 fills with a punch card at one of the LDS here. The other LDS charge around $6 per fill.

Hi, new to the board and just wanted to send my greetings! :D
