If you are looking for an excuse to fly to Bali there’s a company there that will make you a custom suit for less than off the rack at home :)
Henderson used to make blue "and" yellow suits.
Are you wearing a yum yum yellow on a shark dive to see if that’s a myth?

On a Galapagos trip our tour guide wore a blue and yellow wetsuit, he broke the cardinal rule there, Always keep the DM with the yellow tank in sight !
While waiting for Whalesharks he lost sight of the group, surfaced and got swept away. Him wearing something other than black should have made him easier to spot but it took us over an hour. He had left his sausage onboard to streamline his rig :( Since his strobe would be useless photoing big stuff he left it on the boat also so he couldn’t flash it to get our attention :( Be like a Boy Scout and be prepared !

BTW, I used to go thru Spring Hill a lot, my son lived up in Sugar Mill and we would pass you on our way south to Pahokee and Blue Heron Bridge.

Man that is some scray stuff, like a deep blue situation.

Hopefully you guys come back for a visit and dive.

Mako has all blue wetsuits. But they’re biased towards spearfishing, which makes sense when I say this:

Those colors are the obviously most delicious out there. Yum yum yellow, and blue that is hardly visible at all, and makes you look like a hard to spot silvery fish.

Even though I wear all black everything, no shark has ever mistaken me for something tasty, like a seal.

I was informed by a Dive Master out of Jupiter that the color yellow may attract a shark to investigate. Just a precautionary opinion.

Thank you for the warning, it is more towards springs and non-oceanic trips

It’s been a while since the last post but wondering if you ever found your "Kill Bill" wet suit?
