Re: lake wa/ p4y-2

Chef, that's about 16 bucks more than i pay for a top off on a set of 100's. I usually get 18/40 and since helium costs more than O2 your guy is charging more. It will be cheaper for me sooooooon once my fill station is complete at home :bounce: Welder's helium, or diver's grade? If diver's grade, ...

Re: Vehicle rust from salt water

Since there is friction contact almost anything is going to have to be maintained over time. Paints and most everything else just wear away. I've found the best combination of cheap and effective is to very thoroughly clean the latch. Pay particular attention to joints and crevices. Then spray with...

If you ever have an opportunity to feel the Power of the "CUDA", you must not pass it up. Once again Ben has engineered a truly amazing Dive Tool. This is not for the faint of heart, this is the "Screaming Eagle" of diver propulsion. And I must say the extra weight was a minor ad...

Average 1.2 on the bottom, 1.6 max on deco (which if you average over a range of deco stops ends up at 1.2).
Ok, how long at 1.6 on the average?

Re: I didn't even Dive!

Yes most certainly a scooter dive, but man there is so much line all over the place, I would fear scootering right into some. Thanks again Chris for your efforts and support. We called into Anacortes customs and cleared as we drove away from the boat launch (Very Easy). What a great dive, vis was so...

Re: Looking for workshop on currents and etc.

Mischi is a great instructor. I've done her workshop and highly recommend it. -Valerie Yes she is, I haven't done her workshop, although after some discussions, it was safe to say our Advanced Diver Course covers much of the same current prediction methods. I will add; Mischi's Book has a ton of co...

This is a bit of a companion thread to the "cutting tables" deal. For those using computers as their primary deco tool locally... Do all your buddies use the same unit and/or algorithm? Do you follow all the stops on your buddies computer when your own says you are clear and should ascend...
