Northwest Dive Club

Sad to say I've never heard of them! But then Ribs are a bit pricy for my budget.

Fixed! Thanks

Silly comment, The club clock has not changed to regular time.

Nice going Glen! I've seen lots of pieces but intact ones are few and far.

Does anyone have any news about this?

Sounds pretty strange to me. I don't know anywhere you can be that far out and that shallow. GD's idea sounds about right though. Certainly couldn't have been anywhere near the launch ramp. 15 min underwater sounds pretty touch and go for sure.

Too bad we can import a few! Things up here have been pretty slim

Underwater??? Maybe. The Doctor says there is no reason I can't after I have fully recovered and the prospect is thrilling but financially???? I sold my brand new USIAA drysuit and my backplate and wing to prevent my back sliding so that is a major obstacle to getting back in the water. Having spent...

You are amazing and I sure do miss diving with you!!!

Hugs Are pretty much off the table for a while! But it's the thought that counts

Well I made it to the other side and I got home yesterday afternoon. Certainly not my favorite experience but I'm looking at it in the rearview mirror now and at least for now all seems to be following the script. Hope to see all of you sometime in the not to distant future.

Update, My surgery have been moved to the 5th of Oct. I have a pre-op appointment tomorrow. Looks like this is going to happen next Friday. wish me luck.

Thanks guys and girls. Nice to hear from all the people I've missed so dearly and thanks for the good wishes. It's scary for sure but I'm really looking forward to it. My surgeon is the best and he says there is a very low risk factor because there is very little wrong other than the valve and there...

Just a heads up for those that still remember me! As most of you know I had to quit diving a year or two back but most don't know why. I have a defective heart valve that was starving my body of oxygen and it got to the point that I no longer felt it was safe to dive. Well it finally has gotten to t...

Glen, Great to hear your around on occasion, To bad I'm not planning to be up that way for a while yet. The Camping reservation system for Ft Worden has been offline since October so I haven't been able to get up there since then but It is supposed to be back online mid Jan. Last I heard from Kim hi...

Nice to hear from you Curt! It's been a long time! Pm or email me so we can catch up

Happy new year to all my friends who have been wondering if I'm still alive! Can't dive any more but I am still active and working on a way to get back down there without killin myself. I have bee working on a UROV to do the diving for me. I've got it just about ready for a maiden voyage. I have als...

Make an offer guys! I don't need the temptation and I have other toys to buy!

Great deal on an almost new Usia front zip dry suit and undergarment. Only dove 5 times then I had to quit diving. This is a $2000 custom suit I'll sell for $800. Fits someone 5'10" to 6'1" or so in the 230 to 260 lb range. Comes with drygloves, hood and installed boots size 12/13 This is ...

What size do you need? I have a like new USIA with undergarment That I can let go of at a great price but I'm a fairly large guy so it wont fit someone of slight build.

Where you diving?

That holds true for older NiMh batteries but almost all Li-on packs have built in protection circuits as they are required for safety. Once drained below a certain point Li-on batteries will not recover and are forever ruined so the manufacturers put in the low voltage cutoff as well as an over char...

Hey guys, I know I have made a few battery cans for heater vests and I need some info. since the battery packs have been supplied by you guys I don't know the particulars as to where they came from and the tech info. Could one of you give me some info as to source and voltage/amp rating and such. Th...

Nice! I'll be up that week but the fort is booked up for the weekend so I have to leave on Saturday.

Hey it's me and I'm still alive and still making lights!

For your dive planning the first week in Oct looks awesome at PT! Late afternoon and early evening the 8th and 9th should be great. If your able to do the weekdays thursday and friday also look good.

Yep, ebbs will get ya at Hudson. It's pretty simple really. If the tide is coming in it will have little effect because it is flowing north/south past the point. However on outgoing the point becomes the fulcrum of all that water trying to get out of the bay and around the point heading north. Curre...
