Northwest Dive Club

Former Divemaster selling my dive gear (and some of my families') after several years dry without much chance of that changing in the next few years. Pictures available of all equipment. Everything was properly stored and maintained in a climate controlled environment free of moisture and in appropr...

Labor turned into spring, er, fall cleaning day for me so thought I’d try to sell off some spare dive gear: Lift bag – 100lb lift capacity, orange, with venting valve. Used rarely, still in excellent condition. $35 Mares Kaila BCD – primarily used as a pool BCD with 15-25 saltwater dives. Unused and...

negative Bassman, currently on a bit of a diving hiatus. I'm working all week but free starting Sunday afternoon for several days. Any dives planned the first part of next week?

Hi all, I recently cleaned up the SCUBA closet and am looking to sell some of my lesser used gear. All prices below are negotiable – feel free to make an offer! I can e-mail you pictures of anything listed. Lift bag – 100lb lift capacity, orange, with venting valve. Used rarely, still in excellent c...

I bet this is the same chain we ran across a few years ago - sounds like the right area and depth. I e-mailed the city and they said it had probably fallen off a ship. Think they were pretty uninterested as I never heard anything further.

I was on this dive and didn't see the part where defied picked up the bag (he was legitimately horrified after he realized what it was), but, spotting he bag for the first time, definitely did the "hmm, what's this *inch slowly closer, closer* oh there's a tag .... Crematorium - ACK!!!" At...

Answered my own question, looks like you have to have written permission to do any scuba diving in lake union:
http://www.seattle.gov/police/units/har ... diving.htm

I am curious if it would be "safe" though - perhaps getting permission is easier than it sounds?

Ironically I had a co-worker ask me for a similar favor last night - he's dropped a bike, some sunglasses, and a few other odds/ends off his house boat on lake union over the last month or so. I'm wondering if anyone knows if 1. it's safe to dive around those houseboats (I know marinas are usually n...

I was at Redondo from 10:30am to around 3:45pm today and saw no sign of fire trucks except one that drove by (didn't stop, no lights/sirens, no indications they were responding to a call).

Just something to consider, while I agree it is unlikely, you commented that you were confident it was not DCS as you had not been in deco and had followed all safety protocols - remember that people DO get unexpected or "undeserved" hits, even when they were following all the rules and fo...

I would love to do this - a dive buddy and I have made a habit of picking up the fish hooks and other obvious garbage (cell phones, boat paddles, teddy bears, golf balls) we find on dives. Its a big part of why I started diving - to clean up the water! Count me in!

Hey folks, I have a route question: From Seattle to Hood Canal. There is some major construction going on in Lacey this weekend and I am supposed to arrive in Hood Canal at 7am Saturday, which puts me going through Lacey during the "double lane closures SB" that they are warning folks abou...

Bob - I will e-mail you tomorrow between 7 and 7:30am to give you a definite yes/no. I have the wavecable e-mail address - is that right?

Bob - I'm 99.9% sure I can do at least 1 dive, possibly 2, tomorrow morning. Why don't you let me know what time you plan to leave in the morning and I will e-mail you at a planned time to give you a definite yes or no. I can also text message you - just PM me your number. Let me know! Cheers! Anyon...

I would be totally up for Cove 2 but do you have another buddy? As I said, I could end up not going and it would be a last minute thing, so don't want to leave you in a lurch...

Howdy folks,

There is a slim possibility that I may make this dive as long as a bunch of stars and whatnot align tonight. Is there anyone in need of a buddy or who wouldn't mind a 3rd?

Is anyone planning a dive Wednesday, April 14 toward the early hours (9am -1pm-ish). I had planned to dive today but obstacles keep getting in my way and I can't, but would really love to dive tomorrow. Would rather join a planned dive as there is a likely possibility that these obstacles will rear ...

Same set as I posted Pogiguy!

wow, double HP 120s, including manifold and bands. Pretty sure this is a sweet deal if anyone has $500...

Halcyon wing and DUI drysuit on this one

I want to cry. This is the THIRD dive day this week that I COULD be diving (have buddies, tanks, off work, etc) but my drysuit is being repaired for the second time this year. *sigh*. Have a great time guys, take lots of pics for me!

Ditto - Unfortunately the water was too rough and the consensus was against me (*cough, cough, stupid regular NC divers, *cough, cough) for the U-352 when I went, but the Papoose, Indra, and a few others all made for fantastic dives. I went in May and wore my drysuit with just a thin base layer and ...

LCF - I'm assuming the boat with the octo under the bow was NOT the cabin cruiser? Ironically, some buddies and I were at TTN today, in fact I'm fairly sure we were standing next to the bench and I was explaining the dive site to them when you and peter went down to the water (you stopped at the ben...

Hey Tangfish - can you recommend an op on Playa Del Carmen? It looks like it's cheaper than Cozumel (mainly because Coz does a lot of week-long packages) with some non-diving things around it. Thanks!

I had planned on a trip to the Big Island in February but honestly, the prices have just gone up and up for the dates I am free and it's not gonna happen. :( I am in need of some recommendations - am thinking Mexico or Southern California. Somewhere we can do a 5 night trip, I can dive for 2-3 days,...
