Northwest Dive Club

Amazing shots! I'll have to look into this Aldora. I think my first dives on Cozumel were with Angel dive, who do 45 minute dives regardless of tank pressure. Thanks for the report.

Thanks to everyone who made the trek and helped this happen. You guys are awesome! Hopefully it won't stall here.

Nice. What time did you splash?

Here's a sizing chart to give you an estimate:

It might help to know what size you are.

Yeah, this this particular nut job, I would definitely not recommend not engaging... say whatever you need to say to end the conversation. Unless irrational conversation is your thing ;-)

... Randy had the misfortune of having one fisherman doing the berserk dance on the dock yelling at him for being 'inside the legal boundary' and simply would not listen to Randy's explanation. :angry: Out of the water and still in the dry suit I figured it was just a simple misunderstanding and we...

It's been a while but I've kicked out to Metridium and then made it (underwater) to Norranders. I think I had doubles. I probably did it on a high tide without regard to the local offset. The main problem with the site is that it requires a ferry ride to Bainbridge ;-) I guess I need to get back the...

Whoa! Huge eyeball from unknown creature washes ashore on Florida beach http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/state/fl-mystery-eyeball-20121011,0,2071938.story I'm curious to find out what this turns out to be. I saw a post about this on Facebook and in my peripheral vision, I assumed it must be...

Definitely fun for one day. Maybe two. Three seems like a bit much.

Cove 2, Tuesday 9/11, 7PM: 5-10 above 40, 10-15 below. Found 3 big GPOs

Imagining what a wreck like this would look like even plunked down at 80 feet at the T Dock makes me wish we had an reef program like BC's. I was at Porteau Cove once about 3 years ago. I thought it was an awesome place to dive! Stairs to the water and a shower. It was really nice to camp right nex...

Are the buoys in? How are they?!

Yeah, and they're all in perfect harmony. And sending out mating calls even though they were finished breeding months ago. Seeing the UW associated with this 'story' is more embarrassing than ANY Apple Cup loss. I just want to point out that the UW doesn't have a "marine biology" departme...

I have to agree. Look at the map in the OPs link. Sounds like a boat (small one, going fast) or airplane to me.

What a weirdo! https://content.lib.washington.edu/cdm4 ... OX=1&REC=3

I guess it had mostly buried itself in the sand, eh?

Would a spherical chicken be any different?

With or without feathers?

Ok, yeah. I thought you were suggesting to deco on the habitat gas. We're on the same page

CaptnJack wrote: Breathing 100%, your exhalations have more than enough. I don't know anyone using habitats any deeper than 20ft anyway

So what would you say you were breathing, during your decompression?

When you're breathing 100% O2 the gas in the habitat has plenty of O2 (from the air or 32% it was filled with and 100% exhalations) Not sure about CO2 accumulation however, I'd have to do the math. For the 2 dives I've considered a habitat on, doing a shorter BT was a better option than the effort ...

Also good to know: you probably want to start by filling the bubble up with O2 but after people have been exhaling and off-gassing into it, you don't really know what you're breathing. All your deco is still on the loop. I still agree that it would be nice to have a seat, take off the mask and hood,...

Magic is fine for no-deco dives

So, I've been thinking about this and have "run the numbers." A 3 ft diameter sphere of gas (cozy!) is going to displace about 900 lbs of seawater. How is this "Portable" and "Lightweight" ? It obviously assumes you have something like a 1200 lb block of concrete with ...

You do know you were supposed to do it naked, right? Really?? No one else is gonna echo this??? Maybe I just dive with too many people who find excuses to dive naked... I'm pretty sure you're supposed to do it naked. :partydance: My excuse for not, was that I was in Queensland and didn't want a box...
