Welcome to the Oregon side of NWDC lol,whats the viz been like lately. Been thinking of heading out to do a lil diving later this week and was wondering how the coast viz has been.Marine forcast for Northen Oregon coast Fri S wind 5 to 10 kt. Wind waves 1 foot. W swell 3 ft. pretty much same report ...

hit sund several times this weekend and had a great time, Viz varied, first dive today had around 15' while tide was still going out, when tide started coming back in dove the wreck and North wall and viz dropped to around 3'. What a great weekend of diving

I used some stuff that comes in a tube and (forgot name right now lol) and it works pretty good. ALthough girlfriend offered to pea on it for me, she was pretty sure that would help

great vid and pics

welcome to the OR forum

traffic sucked into Hoodsport and there was really no reason for the cops to be stopping traffic like they did IMHO. Luanching the boat was fun, had to wait for the tide to come back in a few feet to get the ramp wet lol. We also ate at the burger place in Hoodsport while aiting for the tide to come...

Where are you going to be diving at? Here is a picture of my Zodiac C-5. we are based out of the Glenn Ayr resort,diving around that end of hood cannal. Prob be diving of dock area, Sund Rock, Octo hole, hope to get up and try Brinnon Pinnacle. We just are just kind of playing it by ear as we go lo...

Charles I would be down for diving with you this weekend but I am going to be up there all weekend with my boat. If you see a grey and orange Avon 17' stop and say hi.

so how long should this crap keep it up? be nice to be able to see again lol. Where would have the best odds of having some descent viz? The San Juans, North Seattle, Hood Canal, where abouts in the sound???

GL where do you put in for diving the two capes and how many miles of a run are they? I have my own boat and would love to be able to kick along and go with someone who knows the area. I have been to three arch rocks and the pinaccle off of Pacific city (launched right off beach) but it has been yea...

hey now I dont know if I would want to see myself on video, at least in my minds eye I am halfway gracefull if I saw the truth it could scar me for life and I would never be the same again .

great thread, looks like I will be heading to the local sporting goods store to pic up a Bruce. My folks have one on there 21' duckworth magnum jet sled and it holds just fine. I like them a whole lot better then the rock style anchor that they used to have, it would always slip on down the river wh...

used to dive 2 up 2 down all the time out of a 14 zillinger with a 35hp yammi and usualy just a bottle apiece. It would be cozy but doable. Did a lot of diving out of Pacific City over the surf and into the big water. I have no problems getting into my 5.4 SR over the tubes with ease, although its n...
