Re: Need Dive Buddy for Monday, Sept 17 - Edmonds UP

Tides for Edmonds are kinda iffy because its so shallow and for decent vis you really need to catch it on a high or incoming tide... I'm off on Mon. though and live up in S. Everett 10 min. from the T-Dock, if you're up for it I could do a couple dives earlier than the regular MMM crew... Still the ...

Re: Looking for dive buddy for Mukilteo & nearby sites

Evergreen Dive has a Thurs. night Shop dive @ the T-Dock that's a good group to go out with... I'm about 10 min. from there too... Usually dive the weekends cause I have my G-daughter on Thursday nights... Feel free to hit me up for a dive though, always on the lookout for more Buddies

Re: Making the Olympic loop

Keystone would be a good choice for your time on Whidbey Island... It's on the other end of the Port Townsend Ferry if that's the way you're getting to Whidbey... There can be some pretty rippin' current through there at times but it's one of my favorite places to dive... Timing is everything though...

Vision question...

This may seem like a dumb question but I can't remember if I had to order - or + corrective lenses for my mask... I wear glasses but not contacts and am very nearsighted... After cataract surgery earlier this year the prescription changed considerably and it's now hard to focus on near objects... Ca...

I caught my limit within 10 minutes of dropping, although with viz that bad, it felt like I had the place all to myself. That's because you couldn't see anyone else from all the silt clouds... :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: But it was a pretty fun way to start the day and we won't mention whose wife had to b...
