    Purchasing a boat

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I've decided to pass on the Aquasport and have found a Proline 24' CC with twins for a reasonable price. It should work out pretty well for my needs. And ShakaZulu, thanks for policing the internet and pointing out that I have the same post in two forums. I...

    Purchasing a boat

    I'm currently looking to purchase a boat and need some feedback. The boat I have in mind is an Aquasport 215 with a 150 Evinrude. It has low hrs and has been well maintained, but I'm a little concerned with the max weight limit of 1000 lbs. If I've calculated it correctly, 4 divers, an...

    How I started and why I continue to cave dive

    Thanks for the info guys. I'll definitely contact Rob and Kenny in the near future. As far as flying within 24 hrs, the syllabus pretty much spells out when we will fly, so I can easily work around this problem.

    How I started and why I continue to cave dive

    This thread definitely resonates with my thoughts over the last few days. I currently live in Crestview and have dived Morrison Springs several times. Every time I'm in the basin, I'm tempted to enter the cavern but know that it is off limits to my level of training. I guess this desire to...

    Hows about some feedback on Maya Palms in Mexico

    This place is incredible, especially for those who don't like the typical resort. My wife and I stayed at the Palms in July for our belated honeymoon. Below is a link to our tripadvisor review. Please PM me if you have any questions. Maya Palms-the perfect destination - Review of Maya Palms...

    Maya Palms Trip

    My wife and I are going there in July. Do you have any rental car tips? My credit card supposedly covers comp/collision, but I am skeptical. I really don't want to end up in a Mexican jail during our postponed honeymoon.

    Good boat for diving?

    Thanks guys for all of the advice. I have decided to keep my runabout for another year and purchase a larger boat next year. I spoke with the mechanic that supposedly rebuilt the motor, and after looking at the job orders he stated that he had done nothing but resurface/rebuild the heads...

    Good boat for diving?

    Thanks captain. I understand that certain hulls are more seaworthy than others. Does Sea Ray build fairly robust hulls? I've had no problems with my runabout, but I rarely take it in the Gulf, and if I do it's no more than 1 mile offshore on a perfectly calm day.

    Good boat for diving?

    Hello everyone! I'm currently looking at a bigger boat to replace my 17' Sea Ray. My wife and I will use the boat for cruising, fishing and hopefully diving offshore on the Gulf Coast (Destin/Pensacola) area. We've been looking for an all purpose boat, but there just aren't many sport/fishing...

    Bay Breeze Instructors

    Not that one is better than the other, but I was certified with Dive Pros a couple of yrs ago and they were outstanding. I'm pretty sad though; due to a move of one hr away it makes it difficult to continue future training with them.

    What camera?

    I'm looking for a camera as an early wedding present for my fiance. Other than what I have read on SB, I know nothing about underwater photography. What is a good beginner camera? I'm looking for something that won't break the bank. Also, we dive primarily on the gulf coast if that helps at...

    Al 80 price

    I checked them tonight. The newest was 1987. Most were around 1972. The guy guaranteed that they would pass hydro, or I would get my money back. Still wasn't good enough. I couldn't even determine whether some of the numbers were cat's or luxfer's. The numbers were in a sequence I had never...
