Northwest Dive Club

Beginner camera TG-6 hands down. And you can take it to the stratosphere. Throw in a tray and at least one strobe and you've got a really good rig.

LOVE Sitka diving!

I trust you are doing well Dave....

Nice!!

Welcome! Hope to see you on and under the water someday!

Nice report and pictures! Thank you so much for posting! Bonaire is my happy place, and I'll be leaving for my 14th trip in just 30 days, but hey, who's counting?! I love that little island its world class diving so much, and in spite of growth it's still one of the best places to dive in the world....

Stunning work, as always!

We have an amazing pool of talent here in the PNW, and on NWDC in particular.

Truly world class!

Welcome to the PNW! You will find many passionate, friendly divers here who will be more than willing to show you some of our amazing, cold, green waters! Good luck, and I hope to meet you when you come!

Great capture of the cormorant! I remember being at 60 fsw, seeing one fly by, and thinking "I must be narced..."

Awesome

My guess is that since you were relatively shallow that accounted for the warmer temps. 10 degrees colder than what you experienced is not uncommon. Two great dives!

Welcome! During the week I can get free to dive, and hopefully mid-November I'll be back in the water!

Very nice!

Perhaps more than you're "signing up for" but this format would be fabulous as a "guide" to local dive sites and beyond.

Nice!

Father Son diving is the best!

Amazing!

Love it!


thanks for posting!

Unfortunately I am out of town or I'd take you up on it.

Keep posting...

Glad you're OK!

Do I understand your post correctly that you went out on a charter, AND you specifically hired a guide to come along on the dive?

Sometimes both are provided, just wanted to check.

Lovely!

Great report... some amazing diving in Monterey!

Well that didn’t take long for the insurance companies and lawyers to take control of the situation, while the family members of the deceased are still in shock and grieving. https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/Owner-of-Dive-Boat-Where-34-Died-Seeks-to-Head-Off-Lawsuits-559523721.html Is anyon...

Very often visibility in the Hood Canal is crap above 30-40 fsw. It often opens up quite nicely below that. The rare days when it is crystal clear in the top 30' are wonderful - because so much life is in that top 30-40'. So... Octopus Hole. Great dive. But if I remember correctly the wall starts at...

This is terrible...

8 Diving in Des Moines rents Santi E-Motion drysuits. Not sure if they have a special for longer term rentals or not.

Thanks! I'll check them out!

Yeah... I really need one. As much as I dive (or at least want to), and the fact that any repair beyond seals seems to be 6-8 weeks, it makes sense to invest in a back up suit. So, I don't want to spend 2 to 3 grand for a back up suit - for a primary it makes sense, but in my budget not in a back up...
