    I've been experiencing the same slowness. It's painfully slow just navigating around the site and when I open a PM I start to think the site is not responding.

    Interested in Diving @ St. Andrews Jetties March 17th or 24th

    Is anyone interested in going diving on eather March 17th (next Thursday) or the 24th (the Thursday after that). Looking at the tides, high tide is at 9:27PM on the 17th which would give us all day to dive. On the 24th high tide is at 1:02PM. The surface water temp is around 65, which would mean...

    Combat Diver Training

    Granted. However a large number of divers do dive in currents, rough seas (I would think rough for a rec diver would be anything above 1-2', granted in some areas 3-5 or better is average). I just think divers should go through some training where they have to work out common problems. example...

    Combat Diver Training

    It was a truly awesome episode. It was interesting to see what they're put through. I think the idea of disorienting the diver is perfect and should maybe be included in the rec side of the house. Because one of the instructors said something to the fact of "the ocean is unforgiving and if you...

    St. Andrew's night dive??

    Wayward Son is right, you have to camp there to dive at night. If you go just after low tide it will be a building high tide for the rest of the night and should be great vis. I'm actually going out with Dive Locker during the day Saturday so I'm not available to meet for the night. But if you...
