One of the Monterey whale watching companies reports seeing a leatherback turtle a few days this month.

Thank you DA Aquamaster, lots of good stuff in your post. You posted something back in 2005 (!) that made me think a neoprene drysuit would be the way to go, at least for me. I'm still diving wet in California, and there are always occasions that make me want something warmer. Has the Everdry...

Thank you all for the information and discussion. Perhaps there will be one of these suits in my near future.

Well, that's reassuring. Appreciate the feedback ajduplessis, thank you.

I've been considering getting one of these. If you have one, how has it held up? How many years, approximate number of dives, or anything else you think is useful information about the suit would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Found 2/15/15, doesn't appear to have been down too long.

Hi, I came up with an empty sheath on September 14th at Eric's Pinnacle. The knife is a Wenoka Blackie Collins Titanium Tanto Tip. Thanks, Jim

Two of my kids went through that several years ago, and they had a blast. As fisheater says, Jennifer is great with the kids.

It has -4 corrective lenses installed, and was found in shallow water.

Thank you Nemrod and ams511. That's important to know about the Taiwan made ones being softer. There is somebody locally selling a USA-made lightning bolt pair, I guess I'll just buy his and not worry about it. Maybe someday for fun I'll try using a lightning-bolt on one foot and the older one...

Hi, I hope this is the right forum to post this question. I had a pair of non-lightning bolt Jet Fins, size XL, that I bought in either '81 or '82. Last year I lost one of them. I've been using another pair of fins that were around the house, but I miss my jets, and would like to buy another...

PM sent.

Hi Oren, There's a good chance I'll be able to make it. I discussed diving at Lobos sometime next week with another friend, but we haven't yet picked a day. I went to Monterey/Carmel on Sunday, and the water looked really green in both Monterey Bay and Whaler's Cove, so we didn't even go in...

The last time I was at Gerstle it was flat like a lake, and maybe 10-15 foot vis. If you're into the group thing, check out the NCD group that Peter mentioned. Everyone in that group I've met has been friendly and happy to see a newcomer whether you have 5 or 500 dives under your weightbelt.

Does that mean you're interested in going? Sorry, sometimes I'm hint challenged. Unless that wasn't a hint... Either way, I'm sure I missed something! :dork2:

Hi Peter. I didn't post this on NCD since I figured it would be bad form when it's a club dive day! Hi Jamie. Do you have an odd number of divers in your group and need an even number? I specifically asked Kristina if they'll allow a group of 3, and she told me not on a weekend. I don't...

I've got a reservation, and all of the buddies I've asked have something else going on that day. Somebody want to dive with me? Jim

Sounds good. How does 9:00 Sunday morning sound? We can meet at Breakwater and dive there or maybe McAbee. Will that phone number work tomorrow? I'll pm you my cell #. Otherwise, look for a maroon Astro van (in need of a wash, and ...sigh... with a slightly crumpled front end). Jim

I'm thinking I'd like to drive down and get wet on Sunday. Did you have any particular spot in mind?

Interesting topic. Thank you both for sharing.
