Northwest Dive Club

We'll be at Hoodsport'n'Dive when they open at 8am this Saturday. Bi-splash, the first being asap after we get the gate key and the second at the appropriate time after that (10ish I suppose?). PM me if you'd like to join. (Probably won't be online after about noon tomorrow.) Both of our first time ...

Sadly, no me. Other commitments. Jealous thoughts your way.

Hmmm... why is it every thread I touch these days descends into poo and pee?

I'll just stop typing now.

They talk about how smelly I am in public anyway. I'm just not usually the one starting the conversation. ;) I figured that this has been tackled and solved many times before, so no sense in reinventing the wheel. Other advice I've received on the board has been solid, so figured I'd see what everyo...

Diluted simple green seems to have done the trick... I was reluctant to use any vinegar or baking soda since lots of web advice seemed to indicated that was not neoprene friendly, but maybe it's a weak enough acid/base that it's not a problem... Better safe than sorry, I figured... Not looking to bu...

Something crawled into my wetsuit boots and died. Least it smells like it. Wetsuit itself is easy to turn inside out and scrub out... boots a bit harder... Any sage advice? Haven't invested in any of that wetsuit soap yet, so maybe that's my next step... Just plain old dial... I think it might not h...

Les Davis 6/2 7am - 10ft when we weren't kicking up sediment.

0ft when we were.

Go figure.

Hardly any feces.

Welcome to the board! Lots of great friendly dive buddies at any of the weekly events... You won't be disappointed!

Ack! Pickles!

Sorry we didn't connect then winte.r! It was kinda spur of the moment the day before, so only knew it was happening for me about an hour before posting... And I was so looking forward to a mutual abuse session...

Oh well... soon, I'm sure. T'was a good dive.

Nice! Welcome to the board and to Washington!

Super great buncha people here -- You wanna dive? Need buddies? You're in the right place.

Hope to see you at one of the Thursday South Sound Dives (See the Dive planning section) or whereever we can get wet!

Hi all, Cleared the little poopies out of my regs and going to brave Les Davis tomorrow with a buncha kitsap divers since they lifted the poo warning. If anyone wants to splash, the plan is to splash at 7 am... I'll be there somewhere in the 6:30-6:45 range. I probably won't be checking the board be...

Think I was the other goofball you met at redondo, btw Thanks for that, I would have mentioned it but I didn't think anyone would believe I met an anthropomorphic talking sheep, and to everyone else thanks for the warm welcome, I expected nothing less after what I've experienced so far. I've always...

Oustanding! I'm glad that I can count on you to make a bad picture worse, Jeff....

Eeeewwww! Nasty!

Think I was the other goofball you met at redondo, btw

Best.

Intro.

Ever.



Welcome

So that is what y'all are telling me. Great. I'm a poopaddler. A sewer rat.

Have I mentioned how severely fecophobic I am? Like way more so than wolfeel or ling attacks or ooa events?

Divebuddies my @ss...

:angry:

Swimming in poo? Ummm... no... I haven't read anything on that... and a quick search brought me into 2009 threads so maybe not what you're referring to...? So do tell me... You're not implying that my dive buddies were going to let me paddle around in other people's feces with nary a word of warning...

+1 Yup. agreed. And if it's any consolation, and speaking as a realtively new diver myself, I'd say it gets easier to prevent it becoming a problem... As buoyancy becomes easier and more natural, it's easier to control the rate of your descent and it also allows you to concentrate on keeping well eq...

(crickets chirping)

Fine. Be that way.

Ok, since noone's biting, I'm latching onto another dive at harper for tomorrow am. Cancel water testing. I will not be at LD tomorrow. 'Cuz it looks like I'd be the only one there.

Have fun with your respective weekends, y'all...

Be well, be happy.

I respect that.

@Linedog RE morning workday dives... yashure-yubetcha... I'll be yer huckleberry...

When I can do it will vary a lot depending on work, but throw out a proposal and if it doesn't work, I'll counter.

Nice! I bet The Lion was a sight to behold. I'd been lead to believe misery point was only an option as a boat dive... Maybe I'll have to get that Fischnaller book... Sounds like a hoot... Glad you had fun and hats off for making sure the show went on Mortuus! (or is that hoods off to you?) olalladi...

Yes,

5:30.

AM.

Jeesh.

Need yer beauty sleep? I thought divers were hardy folk or something...?

I'm already on my way to work any other day at that time, so why should Saturday be any different?

Fine. Maybe I'll just snokel in my bathtub then or something.

I can't even commit to it myself yet... but curious if anyone would bite on a dive or two dang early this sat am at a south sound or kitsap location... Feeling pretty bummed that I''m missing this thursdays thalassic therapy due to "life"... Me needs me therapy... Never done les davis, so ...
