So, I bought myself a dive computer the other day and let me
tell you why. The first dive I did after I was certified, I had to resurface
because I was low on air. My buddy and I went to 15 ft. and when we got there
we realized we had no way of timing the stop. I thought I’d better get a
waterproof watch for future dives and then I thought, why not spend a bit of
extra cash and get a dive computer. I
ended up buying the Mares Matrix. At the
moment I’m still reading up on it and trying to work out what everything does.
A good feature is that it connects directly to your PC where you can upload the
log and at the same time charge the battery.
Now I’m one step closer to becoming a ‘proper’ diver. I’ve just spoken to a friend of mine and it
looks like I could be set for a dive in Labadee (that’s just of the coast of
Haiti). I’ll let you know how it goes and I’ll try to include some pictures.

Nice to meet you.
Well, here we go. This is a first attempt at blogging which
I shall combine with something else I've just learned, Scuba Diving. I have
recently passed my open water scuba course and what I know about the life
aquatic is pretty much what I've seen on TV. They say nothing is better than firsthand
experience ( I really don't know who 'they' are ) so hopefully this will teach
me more about the world around us, or in my case, the world below. That's it
for now, just a statement of intent. I'm sure there's some scuba jargon for
saying goodbye but I'll just say happy diving.
