Congrats. I am at something around the 160 mark.

What sort of make up are you 666 dives? All freshwater?

Nice Halcyon wing btw :p

Nice, I'm still under 15 dives myself, not counting pool dives.

That's absolutely amazing!!!!! Congrats times ten!!!!

The reading material on the deco stops is awesome! And very smart. Last deep dive I did, the master/guide had a magnadoodle with him to play games ;) But I've thought of sticking a cheap paperback in my pocket before...I've heard of other divers doing that (as long as you're not ripping and tearing at the pages, and don't mess with it on the surface while it dries, it'll hold up for a little while).

I'm still around 40 something dives (lack of time off work is usually my excuse, that and a lack of dive buddy). But I would love to get up to a number like that someday! You rock!!
