Re: Dalco Wall Images and planning
I have always followed the NW boat dive's (Dave Bliss' book) recommendation which is to target slack before ebb. Always seemed to work for me and I never bothered to try another exchange. There are a ton of mistakes in this book, mostly he has no idea the difference between a quillback and a china r...

Re: Bainbridge island
If you are just on vacation and only have a few dive days I would suggest:
Rockaway, doable at any tide
Sund Rock in Hood Canal which is 60min drive and doable any day
Keystone on Whidbey, requires a ferry reservation and needs careful planning around currents

Re: Bainbridge island
The wreck of the Boss is scooterable from the south shore of Blakely Harbor, probably best not to swim there.

Re: Bainbridge island
There's also Fay Bainbridge state park on the north end of BI
And Agate Pass (which is doable as a "shore" dive but only if you really know what you are doing planning to go both ways on the current)

Re: Diving Dalco Wall
There's no additional corrections at that site. Its within 5mins of the narrows times but also doesn't really ever have a slack on big exchanges. So you want to be there on a small one.

AL67? I've never seen one, do you know who made them and where I could find specs? Do you know their birthdates?

Re: Thanks for the Add
Welcome
Where are you located? Being in Kitsap I mostly dive in Hood Canal and west sound sites. We might have room on the boat for you sometime.

Re: Who wants to upgrade from a Perdix AI
Lol good luck with your search, this model is far too new to find anyone replacing it unless they are hanging up their fins. And used will be close to retail at this point/ A petrel 1 on the other hand is fairly straightforward but non-AI

Re: Triton Cove Pinnacle
I have dived that triton pinnacle. It’s awesome! We went at a negative low tide and anchored at the high spot like 115’. There are massive wall ledges that staircase down in to the abyss of hood canal. Many medium sized cloud sponges all over and giant old rockfish too, red brots in the cracks and ...

Re: Triton Cove Pinnacle
Different pinnacle lol.
As I recall I heard the triton pinnacle was a nothingburger. Probably due to a drastic lack of O2 down there a big chunk of the year. So I haven't been especially motivated to even look. Would love to see video of it though.

Re: Triton Cove Pinnacle
The Pulali one is buoyed. A great scooter dive.
The Triton one Scott Boyd did years ago but I don't recall if he found anything worth seeing

Re: Local flight with a scuba tank - is it doable?
I would use the lp85s provided. One thing not mentioned is that the boats down there frequently give really wet fills. So plan on needing to have your cylinders tumbled when you return, they are likely to have rust in them.

Re: Water in SPG Gauge
There's usually a large oring that seals the clear (plastic or glass) face to the body. Those are the prime failure points. In theory you can disassemble a glass&brass one, clean out the insides and replace that oring. But nobody ever does because spgs are cheap and it would take hours and speci...

Re: Looking for steel 120+
Then you want a 119 not a 120. A 119 is 8" diameter and 2.5 inches shorter than an 130 (also a 8" diameter). A 117 is the same size as a 119 also the same dimensions as a lp95.
a hp120 is 7.25" in diameter and long.

Re: Looking for steel 120+
Those are really different tanks
120 is very tall and skinny - unless you are 6ft+ you might have a tough time with these.
130 is modestly tall and fat - fairly easy diving tanks except for the weight issue.
