Jeremy, It's been quite some time I haven't heard from you. Just like what Renoun and Tom Nic are saying, show up at Redondo this Saturday and you won't have any trouble buddying up with somebody. Not to mention, you get to link faces to the board names you see on the thread. Also, the best part is,...

I've always considered, as long as the gate is open, it's good to go. You don't need any permit to dive at BHUT.

Jay, Hope this helps. Clearing Up an Urban Scuba Myth – Edmonds Underwater Park, Edmonds WA13 Jul 2010John McKenzie This article, while specific to one dive site near Seattle, illustrates how scuba myths can get entrenched and how, with a few phone calls you can help fellow divers. The Edmonds Under...

It was great to meet you and dive with you Blaiz. Finally! I'll try to slow down and just shift on first gear next time we dive. Didn't realize I was like a speed racer on the first dive.

Good pics and always a very good recap from you.

Ya kidding me? I'm in. A guy like me would have the "torpedo" effect from the mouth of that tunnel. Awesome!

You're right Bob. That park fee they instituted many years ago didn't last long, cause what it did was deter people from going to the parks. I was one of those who opposed it. I was so glad when they rescinded that fee.

This was one of the MANY reasons I left California.

Thanks for the offer Wayne. I'm thinking of going to their factory/display center in Mukilteo sometime this week. Just to check it out. Probably bring my suit with me and don it on, see how it sits. Then again, I know it's gonna be different when its really wet in the water and the drag factor when ...

Good advices. Keep them coming!

Contemplating on either attaching a pocket to my dry suit, or buy those shorts with pockets on both sides and just don them on top of your suit. Anybody that has experience on this shortys? I know of a person on the board that recommends these shorts highly. The advantage is-you can switch this shor...

Nwbrewer and Norris are right on the money regarding the Edmonds Dive. Like Scottsax, I live in Edmonds too, and almost on a daily basis, I go down to the EUP or Beach Park to just check it out. This weekend could be hectic over there. Then again, it could be hectic anywhere where there's water this...

Ross, my Man, you got that right? I can hear the oil "Sizzling" in my ear. But then again, it's too much hassle if we fry it there. If I can make it, it will be ready to eat to the delight of our drooling brethrens. Did you say "Lumpia"? Ooooh la la!

Dang! So many people I am anticipating to meet. I might have to bust my "Egg Rolls" for that day. Then again, just a maybe. Don't hold your breathe.

Anthony,

I have my in-laws from Wyoming dude? It's a maybe for me. If I show up, good. If not, don't wait up for me.

Sund Rock would take her to depths at an average of between 60 - 75 feet (either north wall or south wall). Very minimal current. Tons of big sized eels and Octo places at both walls.

You wanna see wolf eels and Octos? Go to Sund Rock.

Today was my daughter's second day of OW certifications (SSI) through Capital Divers under the instruction of Wayne Fowler. They did their first day of diving yesterday at Sunnyside Beach in Steilacoom. At Sund Rock, Viz was about 20 ft. I dove with Heidi (DM) and Jackie (Master Diver), both from Ca...

By the way, my tank passed the hydro.

I had one of my HP 100 hydro'd at UWS Seattle. The tech there said, while I watched him test my tank, is that Worthington steel tanks are known to not pass it's first hydro testing. As a matter of fact, that day, he failed 3 Worthington steel tanks. But once it passes, it will always pass the next h...

I guess I'll have to settle for that as part of "the right of passage" for any stroker like me hanging out with the UTD guys.

Where do "Strokers" like me, fit into play? I wonder?

Chris, It would have been an automatic "yes" for me. Bummer. Unfortunately, this weekend (Saturday and Sunday)is also my daughter's check-out dives for her OW Certs with Wayne Fowler from Capital Divers in Olympia. I think they will do the dives in Steilacoom. I'm actually looking for anyb...

You're DA MAN Norris!

Thanks for the education. I stand corrected.

I was fully aware of that. That's why I got in the water quickly and didn't do a long surface swim, then descended right away. Got out too as quick as I got in.
