    H-160 issue

    Hi, When on a recent Hatteras dive my scooter acted like it was in low battery limp mode and then the prop stopped turning. I thought I may had failed to charge the battery and fully charged it. I tested it in a tub of water and all seemed fine. I attempted to use it today and no power. I found...

    Thanks to Cave Adventurers

    On our way back from Disney, I had an opportunity to visit Edd and crew at Cave Adventurers. Edd hooked me up with a great deal on a set of double LP 85's. I've bought a fair amount of gear from Edd in the past. One reason I do so is that they seriously dive the gear they carry. We were...

    Underwater Light Dude LD26 came in very handy last night

    I wanted to take a moment to post about a non-diving experience I had last night where the Underwater Light Dude LD 15/96 came in very handy. About 1:30 A.M. I was awoken out of a sound sleep by my neighbor from across the street frantically banging on my door. The house next door to him was...

    Trip Report Lillian Luckenbach 8/19/12

    I arrived at the Miss Lindsey around 6:00 for Sunday's charter to the Luckenbach. This was my first trip to the Luckenbach. It was nice to meet Randy G. I look forward to diving with you soon. There were only 12 divers on the boat and almost all of them seemed to be pretty advanced. We had...

    Sunday 8-12 VA Beach Tug Trip Report

    Since my trip to the Dry Dock was cancelled yesterday, I switched to the Tiger trip today. Going back to work on Monday without getting wet this weekend was not what I wanted to do. Luckily, today's dive was a go. It was the first trip I took on the re-designed boat. They removed the upper...

    VA Beach Buddy Needed on Aug. 11 on Lynnhaven Charter

    If anyone is interested in diving the Dry Dock (80') on the Lindsey, please let me know. I'm an experienced VA Beach diver but I don't mind diving with novice divers either. Thanks, Patrick

    10/11/09 1800 Line Wreck Review

    The Miss Lindsey made it out to the 1800 Line wreck on Sunday. It was a choppy 1.5 hour ride out. Waves were probably in the 5' range with some swells larger. Many folks on the boat were green by the time we got there and the fish were being fed pretty well. You heart really goes out for...

    Sept 23 Tiger Report

    We finally made it out with Lynnhaven to the Tiger today. This was my buddy Ethan's first ocean dive. On the way out, there appeared to be a surfer who was way off the beach, near the channel marker buoy. Was he pulled out by the tide? I started to go down from the sun deck in case help was...

    Sept 2 Tiger Trip Canceled with LDC

    My buddy and I were signed up for a mid-week dive on the Tiger with Lynnhaven but we just got word the trip is canceled. Considering the wind this week, it's not too surprising. We're also signed up for the Tug on Saturday, so hopefully, it'll be better. It's just tricky getting out this time...

    Ches. Light Tower Video

    I found this video someone filmed at the Tower on youtube: YouTube - Chesapeake Light Tower. I thought it was kind of neat. If anyone else knows of any video online from any of our wrecks, please share it. The visibility was awesome.

    Oct 7 Tug Report

    On Sunday Jeff and I dove the tug boat wreck, close to the Chesapeake Light Tower. This was Jeff's first charter in the ocean and my first dive on the tug. It was also Jeff's first "real" wreck dive, except for the Triangle Wrecks in Nags Head. Sunday turned out to be a great day of diving...

    VA Beach temp check

    I'm headed out to the Tower with Lynnhaven on Sunday. Does anyone have up-to-date bottom temp info? I was out there a couple of weeks ago and it was pretty warm, in the 70's. I'm debating bringing my 4 mil or 7 mil suit. Thanks!

    Tiger Trip Report 9/12/07

    I dove the Tiger with Lynnhaven yesterday. Seas were 4-6 feet with the average around 5'. Onboard, were several OW students. There were quite a few seasick folks on-board. Upon arrival, the crew anchored in and the first couple of divers went in. The anchor broke free from the stern area of...

    Outer Banks Hunting

    I'm going to be trying some hunting on the Triangle Wrecks in the next couple of weeks. What are some of the gamefish to take from the wrecks? It appears NC has a new fishing license requirement. Where is a good place to pick up a license? Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.

    VIMS volunteer interest

    Hey everyone, I'm in the process of talking with the Virginia Institute of Marine Science about doing some volunteer work with them. There may be some times coming up where they will need some volunteers to snorkel and help with research. We will, unfortunately, not be able to scuba dive due...

    Worthington 130 review

    I was lucky enough to receive a new Worthington HP 130 for Christmas from Scuba Toys and was able to try it out last weekend. I've been diving aluminum "Compact 80's" I purchased new, from well, probably back in the 80's. They have served me well but I wanted the opportunity to have extra gas...

    Piankatank River-Need buddy for next week

    Is anyone interested in doing a dive under the Piankatank River Bridge with me next week (29th or 30th)? It's about 9-15' deep and an easy dive. Good place to bag some oysters. This bridge seperates Mathews from Middlesex Counties.
