So what's the best tide and current station for planning dives on
Whytecliff Park in Vancouver?

Also, does anyone know if they make an isolation manifold for my Spair
Air doubles?

Thanks!

Jerome is unique.

A long time ago I told him that you can always find a new ole lady, but you
cant always buy new dive gear.

He recently took my advice and upgraded both.

   Not sure if I'd agree with that advice.......I am slowly adding to my
dive gear, upgrading.......but I am extremely satisfied with and not at all
interested in replacing my young lady, who has been by my side for well over
half my life, if it was even possible.   :-)

And to you I would not give that advice.

Jerome needed the dive gear, how's that?

   If he really had those doubles, I agree.

I can build you one out of titanium for around $900.

Bands are going to cost you $350.

I generally don't worry about the tide when I'm planning a dive, cause I
do that at home.

You should really dive those as independent side-mounts.  Why go out
half-cocked?

Grammar Nazis should all get pimp slapped down a flight of stairs, then
drug back up it by their hair.

Dude that's an awesem idea.  Or I could just mount them pony style on
my pony bottle.

Yeah, that way you'd end up with three.

The correct answer to this was:  Don't matter a lot.

We fell in twice.  "The cut" is "the bomb."  Short hike down a short
hill, stairs and everything.  Swim out 25 feet and be hanging on a
bottomless wall.  We saw cloud sponges forming at 60', tube worms,
feather dusters, and all the usual wall dwellers.   The water was
pretty green until we got below 40 feet, where vis opened up a lot.
My mask had fogged on the way down, and when I flooded it and cleared
it, I was surprised to see it as clear as it was.   25 feet, perhaps.
We spent the better part of 30 minutes at 80 feet.   New diver SAC
rates!  Wooo!

I want to go back this summer and dive some of the other places in the
park.

The correct answer to this is "yes," boys and girls.

If you are going back, get with Bryce.

I thought he was out of Nainamo or Cambel River?   I'd definitely like
to dive some of the other wrecks.     I'd also like to dive the
Capilano again.

Whytecliff is sweet because it's about 15 minutes outside of Vancouver.
 Zip out and go to dinner!

Sunshine Coast and Agamemnon Channel. Pender Harbour Sechelt, etc. Jammer
has the goods.

The only thing I like about Vancouver is passing through it on the way to
the Sunshine Coast.
