Thought I'd let you know about my experiences near Club Med in Cancun
this past week. Or should I say what is left of Club Med. Every couple
years we go to Cancun and I walk to the snorkel area just off the point
at Club Med. Did the same this past week, but there is no reason to

Just to keep people up to date, theultimatedive.com is almost done.
I've got the framework laid and 90% of the rest is done.  Look for some
RSS Ajax invokation soon, blog-style news, and boards soon...

Hi Again All!  
Went back to Williston Florida for President's day weekend and picked up two specialty
ratings - Enriched Air Nitrox and Underwater Photographer. The Enriched Air Nitrox
was done at Blue Grotto (my 2nd visit there). Again, we went down to the 95ft bottom

I've recently started a new diving-oriented website, and it's coming

I have one and I'm wondering if the lead is hardened with another
metal like antimony?  
Thanks..

I want to build a comprehensive Web site that would display everything that
Croatian Adriatic has to offer to divers around the world.
For now I am only trying to see how big is the interest for diving in
Croatia. I'm asking you to help me by sending me some basic information.

Newbie to the group... I have searched the web and these groups for
some direction on the "best" Dive Log software. So far I have come

attention to what radical tree huggers have to say.  Like the Brady Bunch,

will be learning somewhere in the south of Spain (so any
recommendations/advice appreciated!) and am not sure if I need to do a
course that includes Nitrox or not. How necessary is this? Also, I am

I forget which decongestant is frequently used by divers. Reminders please?

This is about a Multi National Dive Operator trying to stop a small
independant dive instructor from carrying out his normal business.
And i think it stinks........
The small time instructor trades and resides here in the UK, he has been

A few weeks a go I got my Advanced Open Water Certification.
Everything went well except for the fact that I got some ulceration
from the fins I was using on the underside of my right big toe even
though the fin felt comfortable on my foot.
