Just returned from Kwaj with video - I would embed Youtube if possible but don't see the HTML insert tag.

Youtube links: YouTube - Kwaj_TwinPeaks_Aquarium.m2ts

A lot more to follow - maybe by then I'll have a way to embed Youtube link :cool2:

Great videos! I am looking forward to diving there in September. Can hardly wait. I noticed no wetsuit, warm enough?

In January I did get down to 79 degrees at ~100 ft, most dives were 82. Some use a thin wetsuit, probably more for protection. You leave the dock and are usually diving in ~30 minutes. More suit means more lead to transport.

Be sure to get your advanced certification before going. Schedule your checkout dive before going so you can hit the ground running.

You have a job?

I lived on Kwaj and worked on Meck for most of the 70's. It was a terrific experience. I have a 3 dog porthole from P North (Ikuta Maru). We were also some of the earlier divers to dive Ponape, Truck and Palau, Yap, Bikini and Eniewetok. Most places had no or were just establishing dive facilities



Plywood dive boat Truk 1971. This was the only boat the Blue Lagoon Dive Shop had at the time. They actually used an old car battery on a rope for an anchor
