Re: Tacoma/Fed Way, 6/24
I have to go to Tacoma for work on Wed., which is a perfect excuse to get some diving in after work. Anyone up for a dive? Les Davis, Redondo, 3TN, in the evening? Lauri Make that Thursday, and you will have a couple of divers to dive with :smt064 ! Bassman - Unfortunately, I can't change the day t...

Re: Suunto Vyper Computer
I had a very old AI Oceanic computer and I just switched it out for a Vyper. I probably have only about 30 dives on it, but it seems to be working OK for me. It has taken a little while to get used to the new display and new information on it. The factors behind my decision to buy it were: 1) I like...

Re: Who has summited Rainier?
I think it kind of depends on whether you want to take up mountainering as a new hobby, or just want to summit our local snowcone. If you're interested in it as a new hobby, then spend the time taking the classes. I've done a lot with the Everett Mountainiers and found them to be a good group, but a...

Re: Annapolis work & dive - June 13/14
Barb and I had an opportunity to join a work party on the Annapolis a couple of weekends ago and it was GREAT! If you have the opportunity to get up there, I highly encourage it. It is: 1) a WAY cool project; 2) in a beautiful location; 3) gives you great bragging rights when you have the opportunit...

Re: Diving June 17-21
I dove Porteau Cove in North Vancouver last weekend and it was FANTASTIC!!! :partydance: They have a great set-up for divers, although you do need to be in shape for a bit of a surface swim! I didn't dive the wreck, but the folks who did, said it was a solid 20 min kick to get out to it. I did 2 div...

Magic day in So Cal
As many of you know, my partner and I commute between the lovely PNW and So Cal. Well this weekend was a So.Cal weekend, so we decided to hop on a boat for some diving. We chose the Magician out of San Pedro because: 1) it had open spots; 2) they offer Nitrox, and; 3) we had heard good things about ...

Re: Cove 2 AED update...
I was just nosing around on the DAN website and saw that they offer matching grants for the purchase of AED's.

Re: Worthless class...
Oh come on, it can't be as bad as sitting in the Houston airport on your way to Tulsa for the week, where I am right now!!!! ...but on to better subjects. Rescue class was a blast this weekend. I really enjoyed getting know know so many NWDC members. Not only are they a lot of fun, but great divers ...

Re: Fish hate me
So I don't think it's being in shape. I run, swim a mile a few mornings a week, etc... and I still can't hold my breath for crap. I was at Muklateo this evening and I ran into a woman who used to free dive in FL. She was pegging me about what it was like to cold water dive and I was pegging her with...

Re: What to do about the silt
Cofessions of a silt bomber..... I swear, I never knew that it was bad to do. I just though that was part of the deal with diving. I had taken classes from a few local shops and had about 80 dives under my belt and no one had ever mentioned anything about silt, let alone, how not to silt the place u...

Re: Shilshole Bay 2009-01-03
Eric - what a fun video! Thanks for making it and passing it on! Are you sure you want to go to Hawaii??? It looks like you could have a great videographic career in the PNW - we just need to get you underwater for the exciting shots!
