Northwest Dive Club

All I can do is echo Tom's report - we had to absoutely fantastic dives! If you get the chance to go diving with Mathue and Jason go for it! My pics aren't up yet but I too had almost 200 pics after editing!

I look forward to diving with Mathue and Jason again - hopefully many more times!

Fantastic video! Thanks for sharing!

Just sent you a PM Tom -

Cool movie Ron - now let's see some of your pics!

How often do you satitize your mask and resulators? Do you do it after every dive? 10 dives? 50 dives? And what do you use?

Here's a few more pics from two fantastic dives: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2490/3720556417_1f6b1f112d.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3464/3721371288_a0449f6229.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2436/3720613539_f18141dd73.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2655/3720648183_4897726607.jpg htt...

I went to Curacao about 3 years ago and stayed at the Breezes - it's all inclusive, has an onsite dive op (Ocean Encounters) and has a pretty nice house reef.

Dove the back wall of Molokini crater and 5 Graves yesterday with B&B Diving - both dives were great. Walking into B&B felt like walking into a 'normal' dive shop. There was none of the typical tourist racks, displays or sales behavior. It was great - just a shop full of tanks, weights, SCUB...

All these pics came from Ulua beach - it was about 30 min into the dive when Michelle, my guide, started flaying around in the water - I wondered what she was doing until I was buzzed by ONE of the dolphins. We spent the next 20 min playing with a pair of what we think were juvenile dolphins - they ...

Night dive is tomorrow night, waiting for enough folks to sign up for the Manta dive - most ops want 15-20 people - tourism is really down here. Lots of shops are closing - right now there are only about 5 or so ops doing daily dive trips - most have cut it down to every other day or every third day...

Thought it was about time I posted a few pics from some of my dives in Maui. I've been diving with Maui Dive Shop and B&B Diving - both are great operators. Weather has been great - 85 and sunny! So let's get to it, here's a few pics: http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2053/3534634383_8ac050b98a.jpg...

I'm using a Casio EX-Z1080 set to auto using the built in flash only.

Met up with Ron (Cardiver) and Bric (Blackwater) for a Redondo dive this morning. We all were wondering what the viz would be and none of us were disappointed! Viz was at best maybe 10' at depth - in the bottle field. Everywhere else maybe 5' but, usually less. We called the dive at just 1 hour and ...

Tom we looked for you but you were in the fast lane! Slow down! Now I think we should join together for a big :grouphug: ! Thanks Ron for finding that tiny little fishy! It was a first for me! :bounceline: Here's a few of the pics I took - http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3653/3380760568_3d0fd1b96d.jp...

I gotta get back to Bonaire! But then I also want to do Roatan!
Great report Tom! No more falling tanks?

I'll be there - will bring a few bags of chips.

Welcome to the club!

I'm also in Oly and usually go diving on Mondays - you're more than welcome to come along any time.

Well the pics of the tank turned out - but not when it was on your back! - The valve is only for yoke - not a pro vlave.

Sorry Ron - I still be in Yakima - but the NEXT Monday I will want to dive!


Think Blitz has got the tank - waiting for a final yes - if not it goes to Maverick

I have an AL80 that has only been used once by Sounder @ 3Tree. It's red and is in need of a visual inspection. Hydro is good for another 4 years. Not sure of the valve - is currently set up for yoke. Would like to get $75.

Would have to agree with Phineas Gage, especially if the site is prone to vandals.

Viz always did seem to be a bit better on Thursdays........ but then it's still pretty good on Mondays too!

Here's a few more pics from the dive. One of them shows just how small those little nudis were.....

Welcome to the just over 21 club!!!!!

Happy birthday Bob!

Here's a few pics of the giant moon snails we ssaw:





Now let's get out there and do another 200!
