Just trying to keep the Karma from running over my Dogma.
(Oh! Did I mention anything 'bout, "Rebel Yell Bourbon"?)
You know...Deco Fluid.

Thank Scott at Port of Des Moines maintenance.

Found today at Redondo: One lonely regulator w/octo and console (Rental unit?) looking for its owner. Found it sitting on a bench near the heads next to the steps. I have it. You describe said reg and it goes back to its rightful home. You can call me: 206-387-6749 I will be at the Marine Science Ce...

The steps are temporarily open at Redondo. We needed them open for the MAST programs this week.
Permanent fix coming very soon. Actually, the sandbags work pretty darn well!

Cindy, Rus and the crew have been working hard to bring you this World Oceans Day Presentation. Join us at the Marine Science & Technology Center on June 8. If you can't be there, we plan to do a live webcast from 5-7PM PDT from the MAST Center. The highlight will be Rob Tobeck of Outdoor Line, ...

Sorry Rob..That ancient mariner standing behind you looks like he's fascinated with your
story. Oh wait! That's Dave (Mr Ideations) Hancock! Nevermind, he knows better.
What wreck? There's a wreck down there? Maybe I should check that one out someday.
Lookin' hot there Rob!

Seems to me, as divers...Shouldn't you try to buy your c-cells from Sally by the sea shore?
Just askin'. See?

Poor 'ol Scott at the Marina...I was in there the other day asking about the stair status too. We've got a batch of programs coming up at the Marine Science &Tech pier this month. We really needed the repair work done. Where is Fritz?? Fritz! Tell 'em that the step disrepair had nothing to do wi...

B-Chef, my lad...You are a psychic!
Yep, the items owner has been located and the lost critter is heading home.

Hey! You mean kitty litter makes my breathing...harder? I just hold my breath and cut down on the nasty
carbin deeoxic stuff. OK...nap time.

Wait a minute! Rob Wilson...Public Relations?? BWAAHHHHAhhahaaaaa....
Oh wait, yea that's right...coulda been Paul. hehehe...

JUST KIDDING!! Everyone there is loved.

The webpage looks good. Nice!

No, no bodies involved...that I know of.
This CCR item (hint: Not for a Meg) was brought in to Tacoma Scuba late on Saturday.
It was handed to me for identification as to it's function and purpose.
This ain't a cheap piece of the kit! Somebody wants this bad-boy returned.
Pass the word!

I also posted this in the No Bubble Zone as well: A very important piece of a CCR has been found over in the Hood Canal Territory. I have it in my grubby saltwater stained fingers here at Rancho Neglecto De La Starfish. If it's yours, I'm sure you'll know what it is. Can't dive a CCR without it. PM ...

Anyone missing a critical piece of their CCR? It was found over at Hood Canal and turned in yesterday (Sat PM). Describe your rig and the anguish that may go with it. I have it in my saltwater stained paws. Just want to get it back to the proper owner. I know how I'd feel if I lost one of these. I f...

That is what I was hearing lately. Good news. I too really liked diving with Sea Dragon out of W.Van/Howe Sound. Not that I know Cap'n Dan is aboard, I'll be sure to book all sorts of trips. I've been with Dan and Mamro Charters out of Kitimat BC a few times. Dan! Let's go find some more bombs on th...

I've always been a neoprene suit fan for many years. latex seals have constantly given me troubles. I'm one of those "gents" that has a short (thicker?) neck. If the fit was done right, leakage should not be any trouble. Yes, the extra insulation is a good thing with neoprene. As the new n...

Today (Saturday Jan 29) at Cove 2: Found a single yellow thermo plastic fin with a single neoprene glove next to it.
I've got it. Anyone lose any gear today? Know anyone who did? Email: heliox@starfishdivinginc.com
Happy to return the gear. Just describe the mates.

I just want make sure there's not anything to say in a specific way other than, hey my eyeballs stopped functioning, what gives? If your eye doc looks like this, I would go elsewhere........ Hey! I know that guy! That's a picture of my old Master Diver Instructor(MCPO) at Navy/CG dive school. I bel...

The tide at midnight NYE is showing a PLUS 6.1 at the Seattle station and flooding. Whoo-hoo!!

Greetings fellow dive folks! Come join the fun at our New Years Eve UNDERWATER party at Cove 2. This is the event where the art and science of sipping the "bubbly" underwater at midnight comes together! (Sorry, "officially", no alcoholic stuff may be consumed on public park prope...

Spotting it was no accident...it was done on porpoise.

I was with a group of friends from the Marker Buoys at Titlow yesterday as well. We arrived at the site at 10am. Were you with the group that was rigging up on the tables? I think that group was with Steves's Scuba? We got in the water about 1100-ish and most of us did a 80 min dive. We also went fi...

[quote="ljjames"]Randy! 15 years ago we could fill your tank on demand with a continuous mixing station at Adventure Diving Inc.!! AND trimix for that matter... the northwest was a bit behind but not THAT far behind... You could get nitrox on demand in Seattle AND Bellingham... it's just b...

This goes so well with your avatar, Randy!

Let us enter the Way-Back machine Poindexter and we'll see what it was like 30 years ago.
(Warning! Old Fart entering room) hehehe...

Fifteen years ago I could walk into a half-dozen dive ops in S. FL and get nitrox on demand!
I moved home to PNW after cg career and was surprised to see how far behind the NW was re nitrox.
So Cal was still wondering what nitrox was back then. FL had 'em all beat!

My fav tide/current ap for the iPhone is: AyeTides.
It does have both tides and currents for just about all stations on the west coast of NA and SA.
