Awe well, It was my policy to tell everyone that I was not a great dive buddy. Glen is a good buddy.
The last weekend in July will be great for Hudson.

Re: Port Townsend area dives 3rd, 4th and 5th
Anywhere past the dogleg in the jetty is pretty much the same. Believe me when I say it's bad juju. I have more dives than I can count at Hudson, probably more than just about anyone else and I have a very strong respect for the currents there. Stay in the shallows. As soon as you drop over the edge...

Re: Port Townsend area dives 3rd, 4th and 5th
You missed it by a week or more, Should have gone then. Hudson will be gnarly and you won't have much of a slack if any. My experience is on big exchanges is to stay away from the barge unless you are a very strong swimmer. The current frequently never really slacks and because of the eddy current c...

Re: Hood Canal Bridge, West Side
I think that has actually been true for quite a long time but they just updated the signage. Sucks but it is an advanced site and I am sure they were concerned about liability.

Yes, I am just now putting new zincs in. Dusty2 did you mean diving is illegal? I've already decided to go the bottom paint route. Just gotta figure out if the place I've talked to about it is good and a decent price. No I mean bottom cleaning. The EPA and DNR have very strict rules about where it'...

Re: Cleaning Boat Hull
You want to be careful where you choose to do it. It is illegal in most marinas. You can get a hold of Mike Roth over in Port Townsend and see if he is still doing it. They can do it for you at the port. They have hydro equipment and do it out of the water hanging in a sling so you can see it all. t...

Re: Beginners Camera
I didn't read through all the thread but from experience I can say if new or fairly new to diving put the camera on the back burner till you get your diving to the point where it's pretty much automatic. Then get your camera. I would highly recommend doing the Reef ID course too, it will really enha...

Strange, the sea star wasting syndrome has increased the urchin populations in it's wake. maybe this is Mother natures way of trying to balance things. We can hope I guess.
