    Maui Dive Advice

    I'll be on Maui Sept 12-17 to adjust time zones halfway home from Palau/New York. Jet lag kills me so we stop in Hawaii whenever we go to Palau, tough life I know. We've done the BI on our last 2 trips, I'd be happy just to do the manta night dive in Kona for the third time but the bride wants...

    I should have asked earlier but it snuck up on me. The bride & I will be going to T&C Nov 29, for a week, staying at Ocean Club, diving with Provo Turtle Divers, with 14 other friends. That part is written in stone. I've read here about renting a car, what are the ups & downs? Also, any...

    Won a FREE Cruise at BTS...

    ...or maybe not.:( Me, the guy who once won a dozen golf balls, the only thing I've ever won, only to open the box and find 6 balls :D. I couldn't win a raffle if I were the only entrant. Seems that free car that's being raffled in the entrance at BTS is to get names & phone numbers of...

    Henderson Goldcore

    Just got my 3 mil Henderson Goldcore wetsuit back from repairs. The suit had ripped, horizontally, about 4 inches across at the bottom of the rear zipper, 2 inches on each side of the zipper. I probably had 100 dives on the suit. The bride noticed that her same Goldcore suit was about to rip in...

    OW Penetration

    Since the Wreck Penetration thread took a round about direction & this, I feel, shouldn't be buried there, I started a new thread. I was diving in La Paz, Mexico in 2003 with a group of friends. At the time I probably had 125 dives under my belt. It was a 50-60 foot dive and in the briefing...

    Some questions

    I'm a warm water, vacation type diver from NYC. With no kids around and the bride and I pulling in pretty good money, we've been able to do 4 weeks of diving a year, on average, in the tropics, which was working out well. Not bragging, just setting the table. Due to unforseen circumstances we've...
