What size glove do you wear 10 1/2 or 11?

I might be able to get you a pair to try out and see if they will work for you.

+1 on the citristrip however it needs to warm up some before it works very well. I've used a abrasive sanding wheel to remove paint which is a lot messier but is not temperature sensitive. Whichever way you go make sure it is a well ventilated location and I would not sand it indoors too mcuh dust. ...

Please thank him for his service and congratulations for raising such a fine young man.

Here's hoping he comes home soon, safe and sound.

One problem I had in trying on the zip seal version of the neck seal is that I had a hard time fitting my head thru the opening I know that I am a fat head but there were also others that tried it on and had problems. I don't know if you have tried to put your head thru a zip seal but they run on th...

For your regulator service call Don Peterson at 360-385-3483. Don has his own dive store now in Port Townsend called Octopus Gardens Diving. He is the best tech around. I got a chance to tour the new shop and it is great.

We just dove the Warren car wreck and once I finally got to the right person it only took a couple of days to get the permit. They might have had a slow week. If you would like me to send you the contact info I used shoot me a PM with your e-mail address and I will forward it to you.

Check post 3.

We did not take a camera with us this time. The next time we go we will though. We shot some top side photos but my buddy has not sent them to me yet.

Today my good friend Barry and I set off on a winter adventure to Lake Crescent. We were able to fulfill our dream of diving the Warren Wreck. Thanks to the good folks at the National Park Service who rushed thru our permit and the excellent directions from Scott Boyd both in finding the wreck and w...

Thanks Scott I was hoping that you would see this. I will call them now.

Mike

Anyone know who we have to contact or what we have to do to get a permit to dive the Warren wreck.

I did some research and it says that a permit is required to dive that area but it does not say how to go about getting one.

Thanks,

Mike

I've got one that I made a couple of years ago in Excel. It's on my home computer so it would be tonight or tomorrow before I could send you a copy. If you would like to send me a PM with your e-mail address and I'll send you what I have. I did map the T-dock when I did my DM but that was over 20 ye...

Happy Festivus!

When should we expect the airing of grievances?

Seriously Happy Holidays to all.

I've seen birds diving on Possession Ferry some even as deep as the deck.

Found this morning in the Everett Herald,

Kind of sad to watch but I guess it is nature at work.

Mike

I can send you a copy of step by step instructions for changing your wrist seals if you would like.

Shoot me a PM with your mailing address and I'll send it to you.

Mike

PM sent

I know someone who was looking for one of these.

What were you looking to get for it?

Thanks,

Mike

Yep those jelly stings are a @#$^&!. I've been stung a few times but nothing as bad as what you are describing. I've read that meat tenderizer is a good remedy. Here is what the professional's say, http://firstaid.webmd.com/jellyfish-stings-treatment Hope it gets better. By the way nice pic's!!!...

Thanks to everyone for your replies and suggestions.

I don't have a problem with my feet getting cold I have trouble sliding them into my suit.

I'll look into the Fourth element socks and the weezles.

Thanks again!

Mike

I have been using some polypro socks with my drysuit undergarment but they don't slide very well into my drysuit feet.

I am thinking about getting some lycra socks hoping that they will have less friction.

I'm wondering what other people are using?

Thanks,

Mike

My buddy put these in his boat it might work for you.

As far as dexterity the gloves are going to "shrink" at depth due to increased pressure and some ring systems do not have a method for equalizing. It also depends on how thick the liner glove is that you use. I wear a size 11 rubber glove with a thick wool liner glove in the colder water m...

I have been using the "old" style viking rings (inner hard plastic ring and rubber outer ring) for years and they have worked great. A few years back my buddy broke his inner ring and I was able to make a replacement out of PVC. I found a great place online (Magid gloves) to buy the gloves...

Mukilteo oil dock Friday morning was 20 - 25 feet. Absolutely awesome dive lots of fish and crab.
