I wanted to post an update for the folks that participated in the deep too early aspect of this post. In 2011 I got my Advanced Open Water certification and then in late 2012 I got a chance to use it at the Blue Hole in Belize. What I learned off the coast of Maui and in my AOW class helped...

Here's a (probably) basic biology question that a moderate amount of Google searches couldn't answer. How is it that a Nurse Shark is able to eat the venomous Lionfish?

I went to 2nd Cathedrals with Extended Horizons in 2008 and I had a wonderful time. I was the least experienced diver on the boat so I was low on air first out of our group (maybe 7 w/our DM). My buddy watched me get to the aft float and he stayed with the group. That let me get to the wonderful...

Awesome!

So I am reading here for the first time that we didn't make it. Bummer. That was still quite an experience to see all those heads bobbing around in the water before we went down. Did we at least break the worlds largest Marco-Polo game record?

I am arriving Friday from MD. I am staying at the Hampton in Findlay, OH. I am wondering about parking for the event. Would it be advisable to find a taxi or something? How much parking is available at the quarry and is there a charge to park?

What's your separate price on the Cobra?

Very nice! Iv'e gotta get back to Hawaii!

Russell, Yes, I first started reading up on CHKD about a month before going on this trip. I got part way through installing it when I decided I'd better leave my camera's familiarity alone for now and experiment when I have more time to get used to the new OS. My Powershot (540 I think) has an...

I'd also like to address the 110' thing. After how many dives should a diver make an attempt at that kind of depth? While reading around on SB I've read a lot of replies to "When am I ready" questions that say "do it when you feel you are ready" (so long as it would not require additional...

Hey, nice to hear from you and THANKS for the photos! I hope I didn't come off sounding too preachy towards Maui Dive Shop. The staff on the boat and in the stores we visited were just great. Their dive skill was very good and the hospitality on the boat was nice too. I know that with under a...

My dive buddy and I recently returned from a quick trip out to Maui for three days of two tank dives. The weather was absolutely perfect for diving and we both had a great deal of fun. Background: Prior to this trip I had 5 dives in my logbook. I got my ccard in January 2008. My buddy has been...

Sorry but, just what is that above the diver?

Hey, that sounds like a great ide. . . ...wait a minute! :rofl3:

Would you mind going over the steps you used in photoshop for this kind of result? Thanks!

Seeing that there is still ice in the water, the 6-pack is probably being towed behind him.

My PADI card arrived yesterday! mmmmm... it smells like . . official!

Phew... There are other Mac users out there who are divers. I don't have a computer connectible dive computer (or any dive computer for that mater) yet. But some day maybe.

I had an analog Citizen watch that I loved. It was rated WR 100m (right on the face of the watch) and I went snorkeling with it once and I noticed condensation in it so I didn't wear it in water again. About a year later the watch stopped working. I sent it to Citizen and they reported back...

I have not really thought about it. I usually prefer nice clear water. What are some nice diving quarries around here?
