Re: Anyone tried Skeleton or Spetton wetsuits before?

I have that Spetton suit, it's served me well for years. It isn't as warm as it used to be and it fits someone with a more average build than I.

Re: Open cell lube

Conditioner tends to stay in the suit longer and it slips around for too long. The baby shampoo doesn't stay slick as long, but plenty long enough and washes off easier. If you ever spilled...

Re: Leagues deep coming to CT

Hafa bro, you'll be surprised at how often you'll want a 120cm gun for the big fish. It's terribly unfortunate that I left RI just as Jon moves nearby from Indo.

Keep posting in the NE section...

Re: Another roller gun experiment

You won't get an increase in shaft speed. The force applied by the wishbone is reduced by the pulley; F = ma. Momentum (mv^2) can only be achieved after the shaft has already been accelerated by...

Re: FLoat Line DIY?

You can't beat the Neptonics stuff for strength because the core is braided.

The tubing is about $20/100', but that may have changed. The clips are available from longline supply shops for about...

Re: FLoat Line DIY?

I have a bunch of floatline stuff that I've been trying to sell/give away. It's the good float tubing from US Plastics, but I didn't do a good job sealing one end and water came in. It has all the...

Re: Assess and Choose Your Primary Real World Personality Type Right Here!

Re: Think I'll be using a float more this season

Dude, a boat drove DIRECTLY over me at Beavertail 2 years ago and I had a homemade float. Next day, I bought the big red Mako Lifeguard Float and Flag. It doesn't look like a lobster buoy and is big...

Re: Looking at a Cape Hore 17

I had a 1995 17'. It was unbearably wet, mainly would funnel seawater into your eye sockets. Very sturdy otherwise, I think the hull design improved in 99 or 2000, but I'd check thehulltruth.

Re: rollerguns- look good on paper only?

I've argued that roller guns don't look good on paper. They're hard to get right (I'm not there yet) and small mistakes can create dangerous problems, line tangles specifically.

People do report...

After looking for obvious blockages, check the thermostat, it costs nearly nothing (not sure if a gasket needs replacing). You can put it in a pot and heat it until its opening temp, which will be...

Re: Alcohol and freediving?

Got worse. It made it more likely for me to puke and the lack of sleep made me tired. Usually that makes my morning dives uncomfortable, but by the afternoon I'm good.
