Re: Two Step
Looks like you had fun there. Anytime in the water is good. I dove there a couple of days after Puako in Nov. I still have pictures I need to post. I still enjoy Puako better than two step, I think I like the structure and swim throughs better. Still it is hard to compare as they are totally diff. t...

Re: Netarts Bay
Netarts bay is extremely current sensitive. I've dove it probably 70 times. If there is exchange above 4 foot it is definatly a high slack dive. The channel itself is pretty narrow so when the bay emptys there is a lot of water moving. Let me know when you want to go, I'll be glad to show you. :boun...

Re: Maui dive operators??
Prodiver for me. Always very pleased with them. They are always the first at the crater in the morning. With just a six pack, it makes a good trip.

Re: Queens Bath Cave Dive
Scott,
Looks like an interesting little cave. I s that over behind the airport? I ended up diving 2 step, write up to come later.
Again, a pleasure to dive with you and Rick.

A couple of great dives, Eric, Scott, Jackson, Kim, and Jackson's friend ( sorry didn't get her name), a pleasure to dive with all of you. Probably some of the best island dives I've had.

Re: NEWPORT - 10/24/09!
It was the first time I dove the fingers. I think vis was probably typical 5-6 ft. Dove the 4th finger, macro life was pretty slim, but the normal stars and anenomes were there. Saw one ling about 2 ft and several small perch, greenling, and rocks.
Max depth 27 fsw, 55 degrees.

Re: NEWPORT - 10/24/09!
Netarts should be still divable, I've dove there in a howling hail starm with the water slopping out of the bay, and it was one of the best dives I have had there. I think I might still go and check out Newport.

I live in Forest Grove and do all the electrical work for the dam. I have never dove it but know some who have. Pretty much a mud hole, vis 3-4 foot at most. A person could follow the road down the north side and see what could be found. Just past the turnoff to cross the dam is what is left of the ...

Re: Florence North Jetty
Yeh or less vis, Ive often thought that it could be done. Like maybe Netarts. Put an entry away from the dock and improve the underwater. Maybe some ropes, or headings, to follow to certain areas.General visibility of 8 to 10 feet might be the reason that idea would never fly.
