Scuba anyone?

@Tago-Mago said in Scuba anyone?:
@Giles almost as good as Gosport in November I bet
To be fair, i was still just in a t shirt up until I left - not when I was fishing though

Actually no. It was at Yolanda Reef in Ras Mohammed. A ship carrying containers of Ideal Standard toilets etc foundered there and ithe ocean floor is littered with them....
Not my pic, I don't dive with a camera.....

@Giles
I remember it from this October, it’s the national park. The visibility was the best there of the whole week. But on first dive we had such a rollercoaster current (on the outside reef from left to right of the map). The reef hooks would be very much appropriate.
Looks like we had the same map

We did not dive the Thistlegorm, but we did do the Dunraven......
No pics of anything because I really like to enjoy the moment when diving and don't want to be encumbered or distracted by carrying a camera.
That said, there were a few, maybe 5, images that I really would like t have captured this trip. So, I ordered a one of these. It will sit in a pocket in these most of the time, but when I see something exceptional, I can whip it out (cue @endo
). I also like the idea, that I will retain the touchscreen and that the images will be immediately available on my phone, with none of the transfer dicking around, that I know I just won't be bothered to do.... -
Now that’s a awesome way to spend a new year!
Have a great time guys!
Don’t forget to bring back some of those costa rica tarrazu beans. -

Great tip, thanks....

Damn, Sent our regs in for service.
Paula's 100% OK. Both my first stage and primary are pretty shot "may be able to salvage them, we'll let you know", they are awaiting parts and won't know until they arrive. Trouble is, we are off to the Phillipines in 3 weeks.
So I may have to bite the bullet and replace.......
And in "any other Scuba news", I have one of these to attach to the first stage when I get it back/new one
arrives.I'm very persuaded that losing a hose, and a dangly octopus is a good thing......

dry suits are so nice nowadays but jokes aside I know what you mean. I prefer it on the warm side as well.
