Panama City, Florida?

Has anyone here been diving in Panama City, Florida? If so, I’d love some recommendations for shore dives and/or boat charters. TIA!

Dive wagon/cart?

Any recommendations on a portable wagon/cart for hauling dive gear from the car to the site? Preferably something that folds up. I saw this on Amazon: https://a.co/d/c5XQX0W Thoughts? I hate to admit it, but I’m getting old….

Re: Weighting help!!!

I'm 5'10 165 I normally wear 20Lbs on my belt and 12 lbs on the back of my tank.. best way to check is find a lake gear up and walk in... Get out of the water take off weight get back in... Fully loaded you want to do a complete ex...

Re: Weighting help!!!

Yay! Warm, freshwater diving. The only way to know for sure is to do a buoyancy check with a mostly-empty tank. But perhaps we can put you 'in the ballpark', yes? First off, I doubt there is any conversion that will help when going from a drysuit to a 3mm wetsuit, there's just too many factors. So ...

Awesome photos! Thank you for posting the results! Before moving to Florida in November, I had 600+ dives at Redondo. I miss it already. :(

Weighting help!!!

I moved to Florida, and I’m heading to one of the springs to dive soon. Help me with my weighting!! In my dry suit (DUI FLX50/50), I used 28lbs in salt water. Now, I’ll be using a 3mm wetsuit in fresh water. Same MP Faber steel tank in both scenarios. If it helps, using a 3mm in salt water with an A...

FS: 4 mid-pressure steel 72cf tanks (Faber)

These are no longer made, but they've always been the perfect tank for me! And, I understand they're great for doubles. I am selling four of my stash. All need hydro. If you choose to hydro yourself, I will let them go for $100/each. If you want me to hydro, I will sell for $150 each. Pics upon requ...

Re: Truth Aquatics Conception Boat Fire Tragedy

As a newly certified diver, I did my very first liveaboard on the Conception in 2000. I was on the Vision twice after that. I am absolutely heartsick over this tragedy. Watched a news conference just now that was recorded earlier today--just awful. NTSB is involved. I can't imagine how the families/...

Short. 3000 psi. It is my understanding that a lot of folks used to double these up.

FS: Hard to find Mid Pressure Steel 72s

I have 4-6 Faber mid-pressure steel 72 tanks. All are out of visual inspection. Some may still be in hydro. I will refund your price of the tank if it fails either (with return of the tank to me). $100 each or $500 for all 6 tanks; cash. Can deliver to Vancouver, WA any time. Can deliver to Federal ...

Yup, FREE!!! Womens Harvey's Drysuit. Fits about a size 12-14, pear shaped body. :) Boots fit an 8-9 womens. It will need new latex seals. Zipper has some life left on it. It has leaked since day #1 in the crotch. Many repairs attempted; still looks like you've had a bit of a pee-pee accident after ...
