Just got back last night. Wetsuits are soaking in the laundry tub, latte is steaming in my mug and I thought I'd share a few highlights while they are fresh in my mind. So, off we go (in no particular order)....

Great photos! I'm day dreaming about that chocolate fondue. I cannot wait to try it.

Congratulations on #9. Satisfaction indeed on being correct on your navigation skills, and a sense of calmness as well.

They pack flatter in your bag and allow a lot of freedom of movement. It's like you aren't wearing a BC at all!

Hey Carl....I agree with Chris that they are easier to pack. I even took the six pound steel plate with me, and still was well below the Continental weight restrictions.

Great pics Liz! Congrats on finding that seahorse. Between you & me, I still have never found one completely on my own. I'll have to investigate the BP&W as my BC is getting a bit worn.

I must give credit where credit is due....my husband, Paul, took all the turtle pictures.

My husband and I both use BP/W. They are not just for technical divers. I hear people occasionally mention that they think it pushes divers on their face at the surface. Never seen that happen and I have dived with dozens of people using BP/W configurations. You need to learn how to adjust it and place the trim weights on the lower tank cams. They are not life preservers and will not float you high out of the water. Weaker divers (swimmers) seem to have the most complaints, in my experience. Try one and I'd out money down that you never go back to a granny BC again.
