Sorry I haven't posted videos from our wonderful dives at NDAC and Vobster yet. Life has been hectic the last two weeks.
We will be diving at Nemes Diving & Water Sports Academy this coming Tuesday and then I aim to edit everything and get it up as soon as I can.

Beautiful http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/speaking-of-science/wp/2014/12/19/ghostly-new-fish-discovered-at-record-breaking-depths/

It came from the deep. The very, very deep. Recorded during a recent exploration of the Mariana Trench (the deepest place on the planet), the strange-looking new species has set a record for fish depth.

In other news we loved our last days diving at Stoney Cove last week and even though it was our last dive of the year we are excited about planning our next dives for the coming months.
Saw literally hundreds of perch in Stoney as well as three beautiful pike. What a good looking fish the Pike is. It's not all about the Red Sea you know ;)

10/12/2014

Tomorrow we will be getting our last dive of the year in (due to other commitments) and today I am packing the gear gulper and prepping gear for the morning when we head to Stoney Cove.
It got me thinking about gear. What are you guys using? What is your kit list and are you happy with it or are you looking to upgrade/change anything this winter (maybe if you have been good the Santa might bring you some new dive kit).
We would really like to hear some hands on long term opinions on the gear you dive in. We can all try on new gear but fifty dives in your opinion may be very different to what it was when you put it on shiny and new.
