@Wander First time looking at this thread,and noticed you mentioned Cozumel. My brother and I were certified in Cozumel in 1988,by a guy who goes by the name Blondie,who at the time we were certified,worked for Aqua Safari. Thought it would be too funny if your regular guy was him. My brother occasionally goes down there and dives with him,as he now has his own company. Been way too long since I’ve gone diving anywhere.

Ha!
How cool!
These days there must be a 1,000+1 Blondies in Cozumel.
Our go to guy is a local/native  goes by José. If anyone would like to connect
Let me know.

Lovely–wondering if that radiation logo changes color should moisture enter the case as a safety feature as I believe some FF do @Giles ? (not that you'll ever find out the expensive way)

15… we did theory and basics today, Friday we will go in a 11 meter tank

I think a couple of guys on The Forum dive. I got certified back in 1987,when you had to learn dive tables and I think the program was developed,in some part by the Navy. Where will you do your checkout dives?

It's much easier nowadays. We have 16 hours theory and training in a tank here in Austria. Open water dives will be on the Maldives early next year. We will then receive an i.a.c. Open Water Diver license.

Well, here I am preparing for bed, and now salivating for breakfast…

Thanks G!

[goosehd]

So how was breakfast?  Are you guys getting a lot of diving in? Fishing?

[Giles]

We did not dive today as we are flying tomorrow….

But we did a lot of diving, saw some firsts for us, and had some "oh-fuck" moments......

Equipment issues or big fish and you're bait fish size?

[Giles]

You need approx 24 hours after diving before you can fly to get the Nitrogen out of your system.

I'm curious about what,"oh fuck" moments… Glad you're alright G.
