    Lake Tenkiller Scuba Map

    Total speculation here..... but Tim has mentioned in the past that he can get an army tank, but the shipping would be really high. Maybe he worked something out to get one delivered? I just know Tim said that something "special" was going in when it got approved.

    Lake Tenkiller Scuba Map

    I believe it is because the COE is only letting the scuba park have a set amount of room. Tim wants to drop something new and special but doesn't want the park crowded.

    Yeah, I also heard something super secret is going to replace it. Still haven't heard what its supposed to be.

    SDI: Advanced Adventure vs Advanced Scuba

    That is what he is trying to say, but it's not true. You will be fine with either a PADI AOW or an SDI AAD card.

    SDI: Advanced Adventure vs Advanced Scuba

    Do you realize that SDI changed the name of their AOW cert and that AAD does = PADI AOW? You seem to be mincing words here with the meaning of "advanced certification". SDI is purely a "recreational" agency and no cert from them could be considered advanced in the pure sense. That is why they...

    SDI: Advanced Adventure vs Advanced Scuba

    You are absolutely wrong. The AAD card is EXACTLY equivalent to the AOW card.

    Caye Caulker?

    I was just there a couple weeks ago. It's about as laid back as is ever possible. there are no "streets", all the roads are sand. Everyone walks or rides a bicycle except for a tractor I saw with a trailer delivering to businesess. Didn't dive there, but there are several dive shops on the...

    7 Fun Things to Try on a Mundane Scuba Dive

    I dive to relax. I could spend my entire tank laying on the bottom and watching my bubbles rise. I enjoy watching others divers do their thing as much as spending my time exploring. The truth is that diving isn't for everyone. If you dont enjoy it, find something else.

    WANTED 6 Volunteer Underwater Explorers Pacific 1616 Spanish galleon and more!!

    Sounds like a great deal for Don. Get people to pay for him to treasure hunt and the paying crew has no expectation of getting any reward.

    Nauticam Housing - How to deal with a minor flooding?

    That depends entirely on what type of o-ring system your housing uses, but you are correct for some types. You are also assuming that the leak is from an o-ring leak, and not a leak at another point in the housing, or from a split o-ring. Personally, I want as little pressure as possible on a...

    Last week in Roatan I had Morays coming right up to the lens on my camera (made for some great shots!) and a couple checking out my son's fins. I couldnt tell if they tried to bite the fins or not. One also swim about 30 feet above the reef and got VERY personal with a divers and until she...

    Scuba gear as a Halloween party costume, a hard-hitting expose---not.

    you can buy full size plastic replica tanks. You can even screw valves into them.

    Part of the consequences when wild life begin to associate humans with being fed. Soon they begin to expect any thing about us or our gear to be food.

    Nauticam Housing - How to deal with a minor flooding?

    TO answer "what can you do".... clip it to an SMB on a reel and send it to the surface. You are less likely to continue a catastrophic flood on the surface than at 20 meters. This allows you to complete your dive, or at least surface safely while your camera floats safely up top.
