Equipment Specials:
Loads of GREEN LABEL Specials throughout the Store……..Regs., gauges, computers, suits and much, much more! Repair Room News:
Remember that your new scuba equipment must be serviced once a year, whether you dive or not, to maintain your manufacturers’ warranty. They do have grace periods incase you forgot which month you bought it in. Call the store if you are not sure of the purchase date. A regulator that has not been used for a year may have O-rings that stick and once you use them they rip.

Having a great time! Lots of cool stuff surfacing, arrowheads, spear point, and lots of prehistoric teeth. We were also blessed with dolphins on our travels up and down the river. No rain so far but real hot!

Seventeen of us just got back from our group trip to Egypt. We had a great time but boy are we tired! One of our travelers called it an "Egypt Boot Camp" because we were going from 5 or 6 in the morning until 8 or 9 at night. We stayed at the best resorts, traveled to all the exciting temples, visited loads of tombs, traveled into Jordan to see PETRA, visited and dove on Cleopatra’s destroyed temple, dove in the RED SEA, and much, much more. The education we all received was priceless. We traveled from Abu Simbel to Alexandria, and from Memphis to Jordan. It may take awhile to get all of the pictures and videos together but you will see some on our website soon.
