We’re heading there from May 11-21 on the boat, leaving on May 8th. Still a number of spaces on the boat if anyone is interested contact me for more details. The boat is rather inexpensive for a 10 day trip, but the air travel to get there is a little tricky. Touted as one of the best places for biodiversity, should see all kinds of cephalopods, fish, nudibranchs, crustaceans, etc. Getting very excited about using up some Kodachrome!!]]>ChocMoose13http://www.divebuddy.com/forum_topic.aspx?ForumID=13062Sun, 27 Dec 2009 13:45:00 CDTTravelMy husband (underwater photographer) and I would like to go to some place interesting in May 2010 on a liveaboard in the Pacific. Have done Australia and Hawaii. Trying to find a place to go to maximize his photo ops. Want 5 days/day w/ night dives. Any place that someone has gone that they are gaga over and would highly recommend? Any liveaboard boat that is highly recommended? We prefer non-chain boats (have had really bad experiences w/ both Hughes and Aggressor fleets) and enjoy "mom and pop" boats that have owner-operators. Just want to hear what others have experienced and thought to be outstanding....]]>ChocMoose13http://www.divebuddy.com/forum_topic.aspx?ForumID=386Wed, 27 Dec 2006 06:43:00 CDTEquipmentI need a new regulator. I am a "sipper" when it comes to air, and mostly want something that will be VERY lightweight, compact AND allow me to be at ANY angle and not get water in my mouth. I am a diver who pokes under rocks and outcroppings, so am frequently "upside down" in the water. Present one starts to get misty once I invert, AND seems huge. Any suggestions? Any regs out there that similar divers have used and love? Thanks!]]>ChocMoose13http://www.divebuddy.com/forum_topic.aspx?ForumID=302Tue, 19 Sep 2006 12:53:00 CDTTravelHave privately chartered a 9-day liveaboard trip from Nov 13-22, 2006 leaving Mackay, Queensland & going out beyond GBReef to Coral Sea. Five dives a day incl night dives. GREAT boat - 110` boat w/ stabilizers, wooden hull. Ensuite bath/toilet each berth. Includes all meals, airfills, weights. Beer on tap & Aussie wines at dinner! Diving is photographer`s dream - pelagics, nudibranchs -- it has it all! Will also be time of year to watch turtles laying eggs on land. Anyone interested, please contact me ASAP. Have 3-4 spaces available on The Dive Trip Of A Lifetime!]]>
