They are AL80's... after looking at my dive logs and the vips on the tanks it's been more like 9 months (can't believe it's been that long since I dove nitrox).... Thanks for all the replies...

I think I am going to be on the safe side and just have the VIP done based on this reading... http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/tanks-valves-bands/260189-scuba-cylinder-long-term-storage-fact-fiction.html

That was my initial thought as well "should be fine", but then I started thinking "yeah scary huh?" about the additional corrosive potential with the higher O2 percentage.... That is why I figured I'd ask

For all you Nitrox Divers out there, what would you do? I have two tanks of 32% that have been sitting a while (about 6 months), I had them filled and never used them, now the VIP's are due on the tanks. Should I just take them in and have the VIP done and refill? or is it OK to dive the...

I use Dive Log 4.0

Meg's wouldn't bother with a diver... too small and we are not on the menu... it would be kind of difficult for a meg to mistake a diver for a whale. So some one come up with a time machine so I can get a 600,000,000.00 grant from the government and prove my theory... :D

Drat.... no vacations allowed in Augest.... Sorry Dave, I wanted to go...

The spearo's I know would never do anything like this... The person that posted this has not responded and has only 4 posts..... interesting

Fatal Accidents Reported As Lobster Mini-Season Begins - Local News Story - WTVJ | Miami

The likelihood of being involved in a shark accident is considerably smaller than winning the top prize in lottery. Alone in the USA and Canada approximately 40 people are killed each year by pigs – six times more than by sharks worldwide. In Australia the possibility of drowning is 20...

Thanks Jim

Does anyone do any lobstering on the gulf coast? I heard rumors that there are a few around the bridges but have yet to be able to confirm this. Thanks Dave

Our dives when like this.. First dive in the water at 10:30, sea's almost flat calm, temp 87 at depth, vis 15 to 20 feet (we where in 28 feet of water) Second dive in the water at 12:30, sea's almost flat calm but picking up a bit with an onshore breeze, temp 87 at depth, vis 15 to 20...

For those of you that have a boat and take divers out, what do you use to recall the divers back to the boat if there is an issue? Thanks, Dave

After the last cleaning of my Oceanic Excursion BC, it seems the gasket between the BC and the power inflator/deflator hose went missing (the large O-ring gasket where you can remove it from the BC)... Can anyone tell me where I can get a replacement or two? Looking to keep a couple extra in...

We had a blast, we definitely need to get the shade on the boat though.... lots of stuff to look at, the teeth were just a bonus (not very many)... my son freaked a little when a Remora decided to tag along and attempt to latch on to me, there where sand perch everywhere and liked to follow us...

well now that we all have that off our chests.... did anyone have a nice day yesterday diving? We did.... By the way, does anyone know who it was that dropped off two divers about a mile off shore and then left? Yes you heard me correct, a boat pulls up about 4 or 5 hundred yards off my...

Thanks mlynch21.... I've got the gps back on the boat and it's working great, shouldn't have any issues... just not familiar with the area and it's really no fun towing a boat around looking for a ramp to put in and then when you do find one it's full or overly crowded with .... well lets just...

Thanks again Narcosis.... that was another one I was looking at.... Is there a dock there as well... are you going down on Saturday?

Thanks all, we will probably be down this Saturday.... Now I have a second question, where is the best/closest place to launch a boat in the Venice area? I do see there is one in Higel Park, 1330 Tarpon Center Dr. & Venice Ave., Roberts Bay ...... is this one any good or do you recommend...
