I also want to add the backstory as to why I say scuba divers are the best community of people I've ever met. The first day of my Open Water Dives was Saturday. Friday night my godson was extremely sick and running a high fever. I laid awake with him most of the night and finally fell asleep...
Thank you all for welcoming me to the community. I've only been a part of the scuba community for a few weeks now but I honestly have to say, it's the best group of people I've ever met.
Jenny, that's awesome! If I ever find myself in Florida we'll have to meet up and drain a few bottles of...
I'm still new to scuba but I have had similar issues with drip drying other gear. I just use one of the reusable waterproof crib pads. They're specifically designed to absorb liquid and have a waterproof barrier on the back side. Bonus, I'm reusing something that was otherwise just wasting...

Hey finally something I'm knowledgeable about. I'm new to scuba but not new to emergency medical care. I've had the displeasure of having to use a tourniquet on someone in the civilian world. It is cheap insurance against death in the event of major trauma. I have to disagree with the...
Hello all, I'm starting down my scuba journey next week. Just wanted to introduce myself to the community and learn as much as I can. I've been interested in getting certified for 15 years now but finally have the time and money to realize this dream. I can't wait to experience some of the...
