Curacao is a cool place. Aug. 20 marks our 4 yr. anniversary and we honeymooned in Curacao. I would highly recommend stopping in a locals restaurant and having some stewed goat, and renting a car for a day to see the island. Have fun

I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you have some pressure in the tank there is no way for outside air (14 psi) to get in. Even if you let all of the air out of the tank and closed the valve, there is no way air could get in. Think about it this way, the seals are able to hold 3500 psi in...

Unfortunately I don't have access to the tank markings or the weights of the tanks. I do know that the working pressure is 3442 so I'm guessing they are the FX tanks. I had and a set of Hp-120's that were 62 lbs, 16.22 lbs negative full. I sold them because of this and don't want to make a...

How can you tell the difference between the Faber FX-120 and Faber HP-120? I am looking at buying a pair of FX-120's but the owner doesn't know which tanks they are. There are no marking on the tanks to tell me what they are. I think they are FX-120's based on 2 assupmtions, 1. HP series has...

Thanks Y'all, I think I'm going to get one. Not only will I look good, but I bet it will make me dive better.

Bowtie22, if you alter you suit with inf/ext valves let me know how it works.

Yes Kern, you are right. "Loose" is a bad choice of words. And absolutely buy gear that fits properly. Not only does it work better it is safer. But if the Mares Isotherm ("glorified wetsuit" as you put it) fit like a wetsuit you would NEVER be able to get it on. And yes, even though my Mares...

I am in the market for a drysuit and while doing a little research I have run across the Mares lines. Until I received the '08 catalog I didn't know that Mares made one. A little about me. I dive all year in Savannah, Ga. Most of my dives are spent spearfishing on wrecks and laying/crawling...

I dive an Isotherm and my suit fits snug in the upper arms and legs. Very snug in the calf and forearm area. Loose in the torso and chest area. It's not supposed to fit very tight in the body. If it did you would never get it on because of the rear entry drysuit zipper. DO NOT BUY ONE WITHOUT...

Thank you for the help. I will have to list your answer in the "DUH! Why didn't I think of that" category.

Can you tell us more about the mud puddle. I have often want to dive there but no one at any of the LDS's will talk to me about it. If they aren't selling you a trip to FL then they don't want to talk about diving. I have heard that a few houses and barns were covered up when they dammed it up...

Water temp this time of the year can range from mid 50's to mid 60's. Grey's reef has some nice ledges. I've had some great dives there and some forgetable ones too. I've never seen any sharks there but have heard of a lot of sightings. IMHO, if you have seen other reefs around the world you...

No shore diving in either state unless you just want to look at sand. If you are going to be near Savannah or Hilton Head give Walt Rhame a call. He owns and runs Mako Dive Carter in Sav. Super nice guy, good diver, and nice 33" Boston Whaler. He also does sight seeing tours. Check out his...

Okay, I have looked all over and can't find the answer to my question. If this is a repeat question I apologize. I want to start off saying that the isotherm is a GREAT suit and I would recomemend it to anyone so don't let this post discourage you if you are planning on buying one. I'm just...
