Pics from May 07 Yap dive trip

Nice as always Scott, you mention doing 3 tank dives. Did you come back and do the 3rd dive close by (wreck, caverns/mandarin fish) or did you stay out and do 3 and then come back to the dock? I'd like to see them stay out but as you said some people just wan to do two (not me, especially on...

Hey Scott, It has been awhile, I see that you are doing your yearly in Palau. Who are you diving with? I am thinking about going back but with no Keith so I am interested in whom you are diving with. When you get back I will pick your brain on PG as well....Enjoy the burgers at Kramers...

It will be wheels up from Chuuk on the 5:15 AM flight to Guam. I have spent the last several years diving in the Micronesia area but this was my first trip to Chuuk. I stayed in Chuuk from Sunday 1/12-1/19, 5 complete dive days. Before I go any further let me say that I am not a wreck diver but...

Thanks everyone for your comments, I now have plenty of traction. As far as getting everything in stone, you must sense that I am an engineer, you would be correct. Actually I dive on the second week of my Taiwan or China biz trips. I fly back home from Hong Kong to Guam from there I can...

Planning a first time trip to the Philippines this June. In my research I am targeting the PG area. My needs are the following: 1) Diving 3-5 times a day with Nitrox. This is a week of just diving, basically a live aboard on land. I love walls and reefs and I am just starting out on UW...

When in Yap a great place to eat is Jhuns which is across the street from the Internet café. Good food with sizable portions and it is easy on...

I spoke with Monika and she is going to take care me, thanks for your help, dave

Late last year I purchased from my LDS a set of Apollo Bio fins with the SS spring straps. Last week I had week long dive trip in Palau and at the end of the trip I had rust on almost all of the screws that attach the straps to the fins (see attached). This was new to the LDS that I work with...

I didn't see much ill health. I asked my dive guide and he said "not really". All of the dive sites still produce real well. I did see the normal occasional dead coral but no massive die off. Fish count is still great, just awesome. On one dive at Blue corner I think I counted 18 sharks just...

Boy Scott, you sure threw Palau under the bus pretty quick :)

The one problem that I have with Palau is that it spoils you. Like you, I judge every place that I have been to. I find a way to enjoy everywhere I go but it comes down to my statement: The dive sites in Palau are the ones that keep you up at night left staring at the ceiling. I found...
