    Scuba Fix

    I am facing a similar repair situation with my Oceanic Probe BCD. After diving in Cozumel over summer, the bottom dump valve insert broke. I see there are many replacement dump valves available, however, none fit. Oceanic makes their valves quite large, as you can see the top (shoulder) valve...

    Divers Seek $250K Police Drone From Texas Lake

    can't say I have any sympathy. One drone less in the world is nothing but a good thing.

    Corpus Christi Diving

    wow, nice vid! I've dove the packery channel jetties a few times, both times were a silt ridden nightmare, dodging fishing lines and boats while seeing nothing like what was in the vid. Wonder what was different when they dove it?

    Diving for Science Classes At Aquarena Center, Spring Lake San Marcos

    I was wondering about all the hype concerning aquarena: you pay them a bunch of cash for them to train you to work their pool, and then you're allowed in under the condition that you'll be working the whole time? Doesn't exactly sound like fun to me, especially the pay-to-work part. If it were...

    Last Flower Gardens trip of season

    yea, I've wanted to go to the flower gardens since I first found out about it. And all these live-aboards I keep reading about in dive mags sound fantastic too! But, alas... and yes Guba I did the 12 hrs prior dose just like you said.

    yup - didn't make too much of a difference either way though

    Ocean shore diving in Texas, is it being done?

    I used to shore dive the port A jetties all the time, by the UT pier. Was ok, did it more to get in the mental zone & relax than anything else. And yes, 9 times out of 10 viz was terrible. I never caught any of that legendary 'blue water', and when a barge went through the channel it got...

    When I did it the tx tubes guys were pretty cool about letting me use their parking lot & restroom.

    Another boater needs help.

    sounds like a metal detector and a search grid kit are mandatory for anyone attempting
