Last Saturday I was doing a monthly training dive in the Necanicum river in Seaside OR, with the Clatsop County Dive team. We were practicing search patterns. As I followed the dive plan I found two shopping carts and a small piece of concrete. As I moved to a sweep pattern, I noticed that my tendin...

That's cool, I had no idea the US Coast Guard did stuff that far outside of US waters. So how many people onboard and how many of you dive? Calvin, There are Coast Guard ships deployed at various locations around the world (Pacific, Atlantic, Caribean, Mediteranian, Persian Gulf, Arctic and Antarct...

Wow, Jay. You're really getting around. I can't remember if you ever told us about how this trip came about. :bounce: Calvin I am stationed on a Coast Guard Cutter. The Cutter patrols from the Oregon, Washington coast all the way to the Equator and beyond. We do everything from Search and Rescue to...

Will see if this works

Hello Everyone I am Jay Murphy. I live in Brownmead OR near Knappa okay Astoria. I usually dive with Sparky when I am inport, as I am in the Coast Guard on a 210 ft Cutter (currently underway somewhere around the equator) I am looking forward to meeting everybody when I get back to cold water diving...

Thanks Calvin, If and when the ship pulls in to Peurto Quetzal it looks I will be dry again. I will probably go to Antigua for the day. But who knows, I might still find diving I need to get wet.

Jay

Hello Everybody. Does anyone know where to dive in Peurto Quetzal Guatamala? We will be staying there for two days and I need to get wet. I tried to find diving in Golfito Costarica but no luck. Went for a fourty mile bike ride instead. Costarica is a very pretty country with lots of birds and many ...

I was hoping that the class would happen later, but maybe next time. I dont get back from my trip until after the 17th of April. Sparky hang in there you will get wet again. Maybe when I get back I will kidnap you to go diving. I saw the Galapago's in the distance as we headed south, but no matter h...

Now that I am taking pictures I will have to buy some fish ID books so I can properly title to fish that I find. John thanks for the book titles.

I just posted several more pictures. So much to learn on how to use my camera.

Jay

Thanks I will update the title on the fish.

Jay

Thanks Sparky for posting the dive report.

I have posted a few pictures from my dives more to follow as our Internet allows. (wrong ships course for satelite reception).

Jay

When I get back from this mornings dive I will post pictures. Sparky I found a pretty nudibranck that I will post a picture of. I am learning the best settings for the camera so today I am going to try different settings.

Jay

Hello Everybody can any one recommend a dive shop in Puerto Vallarta? My Ship is stopping there for mid patrol break and I get to go diving

Thanks Jay

Maybe we will have a quieter trip this time. \:D/ We get to stop in Puerto Valarta. :bounce: Get to dive there. Maybe diving in Costa rica, who knows. Have a great time diving. Jay

I am looking for a doubles wing. Can any one tell me about the Agir Brokke wing that I can get on Salvo.com. I am also wondering about the single tank/double tank wing such as the Diverite Venture wing. Is there any advantages/disadvantages for the combo wings or am I better with a dedicated single ...

Hello Everybody Sparky and I had a great weekend diving despite the bad weather on Saturday. I tried out my new camera for the first time. Shot a lot of pictures some turned out but many didnt. I had a great time trying to use the new camera. I put several pictures in the Gallery including Sparky's ...

I looked at the weather and it does not look very good. 40 knot winds 7 ft seas in the Canal is pretty rough. huge storm off shore https://www.fnmoc.navy.mil/products/WXMAP/NGP/2006020312/ngp10.wav.024.epac.gif Sund rock beach entry is fairly protected but ...
