I've been on the Roatan Aggressor twice (pre covid). I have not been on any other live aboard to compare.
Both experiences were very similar, and excellent.
Boat: was in great shape. There was a grey water flood on the first trip, but they got it sorted out pronto.
Cabins: Dark, must...
I was in a similar situation, but the exact opposite.
I started out diving with the Atomic Cobalt. Seemed like a smart buy at the time. Nothing to lose as its tethered, no wireless to fiddle with, and Atomic is the best at everything...... right????? :rolleyes:
So after buying not one, but...
I'm an X'er. And i'm not wrong.
It's the wrong tool for the job.
Someone diving with a sub $1000 watch dumb. Someone diving with a Rolex Sub is just being a chad. Screams of "hey look at me, I'll dive with an $8000 watch when there are better options but I don't care.... i have money to burn".
A dive watch as a tool for diving is dumb.
For 2021... traditional watches are basically jewlelry.
I personally love traditional watches. Started with a Tag Formula 1 that is now 30 years old. Still have it. Have a few other Tags, a few Breitlings, and a Seiko SKX007 (GREAT entry level...
Agreed. And you dont always know if the person on the other end is practiced.
Another downside to the setup is if you are ever seperated from your BC. The SS1 doesn't always easilly fit on another BC.
consider the complications of you using your inflator to exhaust on a stressed ascent while someone is breathing from it
that was enough to make me switch off the ss1
i liked it otherwise
There is a gear rinse bin behind the building.
For storage, there are sliding bins. Think of them as large milk crates. You need to bring a padlock. They will sell you one if they have one.
Units are plenty big to put all your gear.
There is a seperate wetsuit drying room. They lock both...
Why would you feel silly? I feel silly buying my wife and I a pair of Atomic Colbalt 2's as our first dive computer. If I would have bought us the Perdix's instead at the beginning I would have been a $2400 richer genius.
If by being reasonable you mean you don't want to spend the money for...
Picked up the apeks white mask. The white didnt bother me and i liked how it looked. But it didnt seal great for me so back to the atomic venom i went.
Tried the white tusa paragon too. My face just works best with atomic... wish they made a white skirt.
I keep the TDI Trimix card in my wallet. So if asked, I goto it. Almost always never had a problem with it for rec dives with nitrox fills. In some cases they even asked me about specific tank sizes or mix options.
A couple times, usually at resorts, the trainee working the counter wont know...
