However, I don't expect everyone has the luxury of being able to afford it so figuring a way to make it work for those who would like to be involved is also part of figuring it out.

costs about 1200 a week, all diving, all food and you live on 4 star boat

Just had a great time off Catalina California in the kelp.

I want to organize trips for webmaster divers at the appropriate conventions in the coming year... so consider this a shout out to all others interested.

very cool idea please keep me in the loop

I did a lot of scuba diving during the four years I lived I Okinawa. Absolutely beautiful. I was told that Jacques Custo said if he could pick one last place to dive before he died, he would pick the Kerama Islands off the coast of Okinawa. I'm moving to Hawaii in a year so I plan to take up diving again once I get there. Beautiful pics btw. :thumbsup

I'm not certified but I've been diving a lot of times. Mainly lobster diving in South Florida. I've never gone in anything over 20' deep so I consider it snorkelling with a tank. :winkwink:

Vitasoy 11-08-2005 10:41 PM

Can't see I ever done it :(

Lionheart 11-09-2005 12:19 AM

21 years. Been there. Done everything. Love it. Master Diver as well. Waiting for fucking MIKE to call me up and ask me to go diving with him again someday. He has been ignoring me for a couple years now....and it makes me sad. :-(

Sam Granger 11-09-2005 01:37 AM

I've done scuba diving in the carribbeans which kicked ass.

Validus 11-09-2005 02:26 AM

Me mate, although after some rather unhappy incident I don?t dive anymore. Check out Campbell River (Canada, BC). They sunk a battle ship there a few years ago? really nice to go diving around there. Oh yes, and Rock bay is great for pulling canon balls.

All the best?

Ace-wtf 11-09-2005 03:34 AM

Haha...the only one I have not done is the one in Campbell River. Done the Chaudieur, Mackenize and the one off of Nanaimo......pretty cool dives.

Where's Mike? Still looking for him....

Yea, Campbell River is a nice place for diving. The battle ship they sunk was the one that was used in that x-files episode where they are trapped on a ship and get old really fast.

The only bad things about Campbell River are the extreme currents.

sperbonzo 11-09-2005 09:54 AM

I love diving. The water is starting to cool off down here in Miami (79 degrees F), so I have to wear my shorty now, but from June to October the water stays about 85 F, even 80 feet down.

Love that!

I was diving for lobster about a month ago, great time and I managed to grab 4 bugs. :-) Its' great to have reef and wreck dives only 15 minutes away in tropical water.

I would be totally up for a dive trip anytime!

MaxCandy 11-09-2005 11:22 AM

Anyone ever dive near GOA? Gonna be there for xmass

Maxy 11-09-2005 11:26 AM

I went scuba diving in Hilo, Hawaii. It was a trip, definitely gonna go next change I get.

Thurbs 11-09-2005 12:00 PM

this thread makes we want to dig out my bc / regulator and dive computer. been years since I've had a good dive. Last one was a spectacular night dive in Turks and Caicos, lots of awesome octupus and sharks, but at the time, I only had an ok camera in the underwater housing :) nothing like ur quality pics.

a good dive is better than bad sex

Lionheart 11-09-2005 02:36 PM

I would tend to agree with that.

UniversalPassLorence 11-09-2005 02:58 PM

I do it annually at the various resorts (so not much), and I love it. Last one was at Turks & Caicos, which was awsome :thumbsup

MaxCandy 11-09-2005 03:35 PM

ever had sex underwater aka 30m club, trick is vasalene, otherwise sea water chaps

KCat 11-09-2005 03:39 PM

Great pics! I've only gone a couple of times (Australia & Mexico), but I would love to move somewhere near the ocean so I could get out regularly. Damn prairies!

JACASS 11-09-2005 03:51 PM

Divemaster myself. The Campbell river wreck is great, as well as Nanaimo. Good times! Seems as there are a few PNW divers here...a industry trip should be very possible! Warm water would be nice, but as Far-L states...Dry Suite baby!

MaxCandy 11-09-2005 04:15 PM

Awesome pictures... their world is so much larger than ours considering the oceans cover the majority of the earth. It's just incredible the breadth and scope of living things beneath water.

MaxCandy 11-09-2005 04:18 PM

true and there is stuff no man has seen yet

tranza 11-09-2005 05:28 PM

nice pics, Cozumel is a great place for scuba diving

Completely reasonable on the price but where do you keep the boat that people would have to get to?

Also... the list of Pacific Northwest Divers is growing and I agree that we should all get together for some dives. I might be up to BC in the beginning of December. If anyone wants details and would like to dive with us then let me know asap and i will firm up the plan.

Let's chase some sixgills down! Might be up to B.C in December. Leedsfan from masktv is up there too and an avid diver as well.

Cozumel is great place, saw mantas there last year

Lionheart 11-10-2005 04:17 PM

No Six Gills this year. Not sure where they all went....oh and they are only up in the summer....not the winter. But I can arrange a great trip for December in Nanaimo if you guys want.

Dove in Coz lots of times....it is really a great spot to go.

pornguy 11-10-2005 04:20 PM

I started my training, but did not finish because of my ex wife. Now I just dont have the time.

If you want to do some great cave diving in fresh water., Hit the Gainesville FL. area.

Anybody want to meet in thailand or India for diving, will be ther dec 15 to jan 25 or so

lagwagon 11-11-2005 01:18 AM

I used to live on Guam and I would dive there all the time. I guess living on and Island did have some good things about it. lol

Validus 11-11-2005 01:30 AM

Diving is great but VERY dangerous, especially if you are doing prop work or night dives? or deep dives? or a combination. Done it, won?t do it again. :)

Used to scrub barnacles from boats and change props on boats. Wohooo? cold hard times.

He's talking about commercial diving, not sport diving.... two VERY different things.

Commercial diving can and is, very dangerous.....and will also make you old before your time. I know a couple of guys that do it. They are in their 30s, but look like they are in their late 50s, and they have all kinds of scars, and are starting to have health problems.
