This is a chilling read for those of us that love to visit mexico, particularly since the skimmer is INSIDE the ATM thanks to corrupt technicians. http://krebsonsecurity.com/2015/09/tracking-a-bluetooth-skimmer-gang-in-mexico Bottem line: NEVER use an ATM that is not physically inside a bank...

What the heck is this??? Just got back from a week on Maui and found this little guy in about 45' of water off of Ulua.

Me too, but I know what cave diving is really about, death, death, and more death will repel the uneducated, I hope.

Saw it last night in iMax 3D, good movie, kept me on edge. I don't see a mad rush of wannabe cave divers heading to the overhead from this.

It will be nice to enter at Luke's Hope after I'm full cave. No issues here, more of an issue was the "slicker than an iced sidewalk" ladder at Naharon. No Cave dives there, but Cavern dives in Dos Ojos are what started me on the cave path. Amazing the journey that a 3 day Norte can blow...

I thought I'd post a short trip report from my return to Tulum 12/11-12/16. As background I went to Tulum in March and dove for a week with Bil Phillips @ Speleotech to earn my NSS-CDS Basic Cave cert. This was by far the most challenging (and rewarding) cert I have ever tried so I was eager...

Who said anything about an afternoon trip? :shakehead: The fact is that the MD II is so slow that since it's first dive is usually at Molokini the ride back uphill has been a drag in my experience.

I can also highly recommend B&B. Nice boat, great team. I like their early departures so I get back in time to do other things with my day. Maui Diamond II is also a nice boat with a good crew, my dislike is the amount of time spent getting to/from the dive sites. Since they depart from Maalaea...

Best length depends on you, your rig, and port placement on your first stages. A 22" works fine for me on a single tank, but move the primary a little on my doubles and I need a 24"

I feel for you, my trip to the Wrecks on Friday was scrubbed as well, now I'm back on the road for another week, hopefully this weather will get better by next weekend.

Watched a PADI wreck class last weekend on the Yukon, what a train wreck. Students with no skills (buoyancy, line handling, proper kicks, nothing), instructor not much better (watched him teach basket weaving 101, gathering up line from a spool in his hand). Dangling everything (lights...

Find a local, independent shop (like Hollywood Divers) run by actual SCUBA divers and give them you business. I had an OP on Maui refuse to take me when I showed my 1972 PADI Scuba Cert. :shakehead:

Unfortunatly a family issue has come up so I can't make it :(

Be careful out there people, no bug is worth your life. Lobster diver dies after being pulled from Mission Bay - SignOnSanDiego.com Lobster diver dies after being pulled from Mission Bay By Pauline Repard and Susan Shroder Originally published October 5, 2010 at 10:43 p.m., updated...

I was wondering the same thing, no bug is worth my life.....

This could have had a VERY bad ending. http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/near-misses-lessons-learned/354803-divers-rescued-surf-kelp.html Everybody be safe out there.........

This had all the potential to end with a multiple fatality. The lesson learned here for me is know your limits and respect the ocean. Retiree helps rescue trapped divers in La Jolla - SignOnSanDiego.com Retiree helps rescue trapped divers in La Jolla By Craig Gustafson Sunday, October...

A number of reasons, all bad. Mostly just too lazy to re-rig my regs for a single rig (and too cheap to buy a second set for singles diving), but after thinking about humping doubles back up the hill after the dive re-rigging my regs doesn't seem so bad after all so I'll withdraw the LCD30...

I have a LCD30 I can bring since I'll be lugging doubles.

I'm planning on coming, help a lazy guy out and let me know what bring ;)
