Gear Notes
Trip reports, gear notes and the practical answers we find ourselves giving on the boat.
Written by the people who guide the dives
Everything here is written by our own instructors and guides rather than commissioned - which is why the trip reports include the mornings we cancelled and the gear notes tell you what not to bring.
If you are planning a first trip, the season guide and the packing list are the two worth reading before you book. If you have just certified, start with the article on air consumption.
