    Attaching a torch/flashlight to your BCD so you can use it but not drop it.

    RCB probably causing insomnia :wink:

    Question Is baby shampoo really that bad?

    Things that piss me off: People who spit in their masks then rinse them in the communal dunk bucket in the boat. :vomit:

    Attaching a torch/flashlight to your BCD so you can use it but not drop it.

    FYI - I use hog rings to tie up the bungees. I guess you could use zipties, but I hate the sharp tips and they can be annoying on your wrist.

    That seems too thick for a boltsnap? Pics please...

    I just attach a bungee loop and a boltsnap. Unclip and loop over your wrist. When done, clip onto a ring.

    Baby shampoo works better than spit. No it doesn't. Yes it does. No it doesn't. Yes it does. No it doesn't. Yes it does. No it doesn't. Yes it does. No it doesn't. Yes it does. No it doesn't. Yes it does. No it doesn't. Yes it does. No it doesn't. Yes it does...

    Question Is baby shampoo really that bad?

    I’ve read stuff about reef damage “caused” by sunscreens but none about shampoo especially that self-serving bs from Stream2Sea. Really hard to quantify damage to reefs from these products anyway.

    Robert “Doc” Adelman aka Roatan Man

    White wine was Radawski's poison. Monkey LaLa is instantaneous diabetes. He had enough problems.

    One Hour Layover Adequate to Connect GCM and LYB?

    Not quite. LC does not allow flights to land after dusk so depending on time of year can impact flights.

    Any reason to avoid scuba.com?

    OP: “ No local dealers near me, so seems online is my best choice.”

    Dive Center Owners - spend less time administrating and more time diving and making happy customers.

    A lot of PADI stores use EVE software. Dedicated diveshop software from the UK. Easily the most comprehensive and user UNfriendly software ever developed. I hated using it.

    Robert “Doc” Adelman aka Roatan Man

    I met him several times at CCV. Fascinating guy. I still have his credit card sized maps of the back yard. The board will be a little less interesting without him. He was a great resource about all things Roatan.

    One Hour Layover Adequate to Connect GCM and LYB?

    I'm 0/2 with United transferring to CA trying to get the 5:10pm to LYB. Those Otters are also "maintenance problems" prone. CA has been promising to get another one. Still nothing as of today. I'm going in June. Fingers crossed.

    One Hour Layover Adequate to Connect GCM and LYB?

    Be aware: The 5:10pm flight to LYB in October is hit or miss. LYB has no lighting so if your flight is delayed by 30 mins, you’re SOL. (Otter cannot land after sunset).

    Curious. Are/were you taking a course there?

    Medical Fatality in Plura cave system in Norway

    Are you sure about that? Jared previously said “knowing that we are not built for long dives in cold water, we chose to dive open circuit doubles.” Will be interesting to read a factual report.

    “Duty of Care” when taking others on personal vessel, to dive

    Nah. Easy to get phone records. Then you’re f’ed. And him too. Why are you retaining a lawyer anyhoo? You’re dead set against them I think everyone likes winning and getting paid. My experience is that the people who malign attorneys are the first to sue when the opportunity presents itself...

    “Duty of Care” when taking others on personal vessel, to dive

    If you die on your boat and some “greedy” lawyer convinces your next of kin to sue the boat manufacturer/equipment manufacturer/whoever has the best insurance for a big jackpot, are they “greedy” too? That’s how it happens…😝
