Yes, when full, she should have no trouble sinking - but (just for argument's sake), let's say that her HP100 is negatively 2lbs buoyant when "empty", and the LP72's are negative 1lb each when "empty" = she gets to wear the same amount of lead (not figuring in weight related to ...

Since the tanks are each lighter then the HP-100's, she should be able to wear less wight on her belt , that this rig should not be drastically heavier then what she is using now. Any thoughts? Just remember that the weight on her belt is directly related to the buoyancy characteristics of the tank...

Quillfish?

Did you end up selling your soul, or did you resort to voodoo?

You should definitely check this before shipping the light back, as the HID ballast requires a min voltage to operate. Charging up the battery and trying again should be a quick and easy means of eliminating it as a potential issue.

Jess how the F do you get these amazing squid shots? I hate you. I tell you what, I will trade all my squid shots for one of your six-gill shots. He has me hold the squid in place then photo shopes my hand out of the picture if u look real close u might be able to see the outline of my hand :angelb...

Here's a few pics I managed to capture at Day Island: Red Nudibranch 2.JPG Sailfin Sculpin 2.JPG Flabellina 2.JPG Chiton 1.JPG Opalescent Squid 3.JPG Juvenile GPO.JPG GPO Eye.JPG This last GPO was HUGE, and very active - at one point he stretched a tentacle outside the den, checking out what I was. ...

I hope that makes some sense... if not let me know and I'll post a pix later this week.

Yep, got it. Thanks!

http://www.seasoftscuba.com/pockets/quickditch-pocket.html Ya just gotta mod them by adding a D-ring on the left side,... Care to elaborate/share how you've done this? I've used the Seasoft quickditch pockets for a few years - first as they were integrated in my Seasoft Pro BCD, and now I use the S...

I was plagued by can light issues most of the dive at Cove 2 - there's a short somewhere in the wiring that I need to find and fix. As a result, I spent the majority of the dive "hunting" within the beam of my camera's focus light. Not a bad thing to narrow your focus once in a while. Foun...

.... It would be nice if you could take a video on it and post it so peeps on the board that use the DC snap on glove system can use it as a reference when needed. Here you go: [youtube]http://youtu.be/J_JWR09pf8A[/youtube] He sure makes it look a hell of a lot easier than the time I was recruited ...

Here I was, thinking that a trip to the hood would be a good idea. Now, after reading your writeup and seeing your pics, I'm really jonesing to get back there. I really like the Janolus shots, Tom. Very nice!

I haven't gone through all my pics from the trip yet, but here's some video I took.

I'll be there!

I really need to remember to get a cup of coffee in me before reading your dive reports, Buck. I found myself wondering why an octo would want to bathe a shrimp...and how?

Always entertaining, tho!

Sounds like a good night at 3TN!

...This will give you a little taste of Salt Creek diving. Maybe Mike will post a few of his shots :smt064 This was my first dive using a wide angle dome port on my G10 - and we had some great vis to play with. I still have some wrinkles to iron out, but overall I was pretty happy with the results....

Always wondered what the "long walk" in and out of the crater was like. This video shows what's involved - also has some great diving footage in the lake:

**Edit** Looks like Selkie and I were typing at the same time...

Cool beans! Cardiver, Scubie and I literally stumbled across one of these back in April at Redondo. It was a first for all of us, and we didn't have any idea what it was. We didn't have much opportunity to take pictures of it before it bolted - I would too, with three sets of strobes firing at will....

Had a nice dive with my buddy Dane on Friday out at Day Island. Slack before ebb was predicted at 1:35pm, and we hit the water a few minutes past our planned 12pm splash. We dropped in at 12:21pm after our surface swim in about 30fsw (we could see the bottom from the surface before descending!), and...

Just bought it !! G11 here I come

See if you can splurge for the G12 - uses the same housing, and you get HD video.

A few shots from Thursday's dive at Redondo:
Did someone say bacon?

Oh ok. Someone must have painted that green. I was just concerned that you stripped a spray galvanized tank (Fabers mostly). If possible you want to avoid that, the paint is an intergral part of their coating and hard to replicate with a can. I have an old Scubapro (Faber) 95 that has some spot cor...

Planning on being there for dives 2 & 3.

Ahh - I've been looking for the Masterseal 10 instead of the Superseal. We had a few rental drysuits in our shop that had the Superseal, and found the same thing - that they didn't always seat correctly, especially in instances where we the suit "almost" fit the diver. It may be unfounded,...
