All, I was at the sportsmen's show a few weeks ago and I ran into some people who operate a fishing charter business out of Garibaldi. According to their...
Craig, I would be game sometime this summer. Keep me informed. It has been a long time since I have done an Oregon coast dive. Todd Cliff ... was ... when...
I'd be interested Craig. You need to find out if they provide a divemaster, or if we need to. Also cost, minimum number of divers, etc. Sounds like fun. ...
I haven't heard of this one in particular-I know there are a few who operate out of Garibaldi-I'd be willing to give it a try. ... Eric Larson Providence...
Hi all... I'm interested. I've the same questions SteveB asked...esp the divemaster and cost. ;-) I've boat dived Monterey, CA in some big swells...was...
We do have big swells here as well. Cape Lookout is pretty protected if you get to the other side. Three Arch Rocks is closed due to the birds during the...
Are all interested parties interested in this as a spearfishing trip? I've never heard of pleasure diving in the ocean off Oregon! ... Eric Larson Providence...
Hi...anyone interested in taking a chance on me? My first drysuit dive in the new'ish drysuit was @ Pt.Whitney. I still need to dial in my air valve, work on...
Well, that's interesting. It sounds very much like San Luis Obispo (2.5 hrs so. of Monterey). The best dives were 3 miles out cuz the viz was so bad (hit...
Hi Ellen Bandito Charters provides food, it is included in your dive fee. I am sure that there will be many divers who will look after you and make sure that...

I stopped in the Garibaldi dive shop a year or two back. I was surprised to see the huge number of spear guns and slings for sale in the shop. I guess...
Hi Diana - Thanks for the info. I know this is going to sound childish and picky. But I really don't relish paying for a boat dive when I don't consider...
Dear Ellen, I'll throw my 2 cents worth in here (not that I'm an expert) but I'll tell you what works best for me. I leave my dry suit exhaust valve all the...
Thanks Jeff the site you referenced brought back memories I had forgot it has been 20 years since I've been to some of them. There are some small lakes and...
Who's "Cat" Ta ... is great advise! ... Mar. 17? ... I'll tell you what works best for me. I leave my dry suit exhaust valve all the way open during the...
I'm a diver re-entering and would like to take a season for doing some shore diving. Just purchased my system this last year and a half. Would like to do some...
Hi Craig.... hmmmm. I had the suit pressure tested and it passed....then I did my my dive and it leaked. And the valve was all the way open. But what you...
Hi Ellen... It could be the wrist seal that's causing your arm to be wet. Valves can leak (the seams around my intake valve went bad once) but I would first...
Well said Mr Larkin! My two cents...keep just enough air in your drysuit to relieve the squeeze and allow your warm clothes to retain their loft (loft=warm). ...
Hi Ellen, One other thing to check. The exhaust valve has an inner flange inside the suit that screws into the valve and sandwiches the suit material. Make...
One last thing to try on the exhaust valve...simply soak it in warm water with a drop or two of dishwashing soap(soak the whole sleeve rather than removing the...
Hi Jerry and Craig ;-) I had new seals (wrist/neck)put on and the suit pressure tested. It was barely used, but had been in storage for 4 years. While it ...
Lots of local shops will perform tests for you-kind of a hassle sometimes- I've had the best luck brainstorming with other divers who can focus on the task at...
neutral buoyancy!!! prevent the problem by keeping unnecessary air out of your suit, some people like gators(not me), ankle weights (1 or 2 lbs) will help...
For all of you, I've seen Eric do is spinning back flip, air in feet, ascent stop. He got straight 9.7's across the board, except for a 6.3 from the East...
