Dominica 2024 Scott's Scuba Group Trip to Fort Young Hotel and Dive Resort
This video, shot by Jennifer Dillaman of Blue Descent Photography, gives a glimpse of the reefs around Dominica island. We stayed at Fort Young hotel and dive resort. The reefs were full of life and breathtaking views. The walls and pinnacles were beautiful but easy to dive for every level. The house reef was set directly in front of the hotel and easy entry and navigation. Giant barrel and pillar sponges here were some of the largest I have ever seen and blanketed all of the sites we visited.

While at Atlantis Dive Resort in Dumaguete Philippines we came across this flamboyant cuttlefish. He was ‘walking’ across the dark sand bottom hunting tiny little shrimps and other organisms. As you watch notice how he pauses and kind of puffs up and blinks another color right as his long tongue comes out and he snatches up his prey!! *please note that I take conservation and the safety of aqua...
Ginnie Springs Devil System Cave Dive. Exploring Some Smaller Passages on Rebreathers.

This video was taken June of 2020 at Ginnie Springs Florida. We dove the Devil system. We entered through the devil's eye entrance and explored the catacombs, gallery, lips, keyhole, and more. The divers are all NSS-CDS and PADI certified at various levels. Something you cannot see is that this system has a VERY strong and hard flow, or current. There are times when entering that no matter how ...

Diving White Star Quarry Crusher Pit with Scott's Scuba Service

We loved diving White Star Quarry's crusher pit. This unique underwater attraction requires special permission to dive. The bottom is in about 75 foot of water and vis was over 50 feet. Silt was easy to kick up so diver's need to be careful. There is a shallower pit house of some sort very close to the ladder entry and then the pit descends underground. You can enter/exit at both the pit openin...
What Salt Water Does to the Inside of Your Scuba Regulator
zhlédnutí 660Před 4 lety
Ever wonder why rinising your reg after a dive, and getting it serviced after a trip is so important? A little salt water, can cause major buildup and corrosion on critical parts of your regulator. Check out this video to see what it looks like when a regulator has been dove in the ocean and is in for service. Let us know if you have any questions! Let's Go Dive! www.ScottsScuba.com

This video took a lot of work and the end result is outstanding. Thank You! Are you able to share the deck plans? Cheers.
The way you trim your facial hair is awful.
It’s amazing how high watching this video spikes my anxiety 😬 even knowing that 1) I am not the one in the cave and that 2) y’all obviously made it out safely since you are posting the video. 😂 Thank you for sharing.
You should have put your ring out ..now the next peraon who buys it will have to check for damages 😉
Can you do a video on drysuit diving
Another key point is that air has 21% oxygen. When we breath we only use 4% so 17% is still left over! A re-breather can use this oxygen again, but in a traditional SCUBA it's just lost as bubbles. This is why you can be underwater much longer with a re-breather.
You guys are from Pittsburgh and you dove the Doria?! I'm amazed, I didn't think there were any of those kinds of divers here in landlocked Western PA, nowhere near an ocean or the Great Lakes wrecks. My dad used to dive off the Wahoo back then, he was from Lancaster and got his certificate from Smokey's Divers' Den, he'd go to the local quarry to get certified or practice and get used to his gear, then he'd use the Wahoo to dive the San Diego, Texas Tower 4 and the Almirante. He never made it to the Doria though, but he was working towards it. He was married with 4 kids and a full time job, and my mom was very unreasonable, so he had to give it up, not enough time or money to do it. I've wanted to do it ever since he told me, but I find myself in the same fix, except my wife isn't as bad and I don't have kids, but same area, not enough time or money, and it's harder and more expensive these days to do that. I owned Lost Liners but it was Ghost Liners that got my dad talking when he took me to a book store to buy books, I chose that one. And the Doria was in that one as well, same author too.
Can you make a video of drysuit
Rest in peace to those who died on this ship. May they all be kept in our memories, and may we remember all those souls who perished on The Great Lakes.
did they remove the bodies of the crewmen?
Woah
Good info bad presentation
NIce video! One of my favorite circuits.
Imagine being awaned from your sleep, and suddenly the wall is the floor, and finding a way out, in the dark, is a challenge. In a lot of old shipwrecks, women and children did not survive, because it was women and children first...the rickety old lifeboats would get smashed against the side of the ship and all souls were lost. Also, the long heavy skirts made it impossible for even the strongest swimmer didn't have a chance.
I went through this back in the 1980's when I was a fairly new diver. It was dark, cold and scary!
Oh my god. that chair at 41:30 is so beautiful and intact. IT BELONGS IN A MUSEAM!
Very useful
Thank you for sharing this, my grandfather Stanley Haske was lost on this ship. Safe diving.
I'm very sorry for your loss. I can't begin to know how difficult this was for you and your family.
Impressive
oh, not what I thought. I thought it would break the co2 bond and just give back the oxygen and take oxygen from the water.
That would require on-board electrolysis. While technically possible, it is a slow process. Now that’s just with pure water. Electrolysis on salt water produces different biproducts, sodium hydroxide and chlorine, which are both not something you’d want to breathe.
@@flakdampler11 I was thinking free oxygen in the water. as for the CO2 we breathe out no Cl. but that's just the miracle I thought a rebreather did. I thought they had figured out how to be a fish.
@@gdotone1 oh yeah that would be cool. It’s probably possible to make something that works like gills. I wonder what the limitation is.
@@flakdampler11 i imagine size at first. i bet the military already has such. probably classified beyond top, top secret. theirs might desalinated the salt water, using either a membrane, or catalyst, or enzyme, or electrolysis to get the oxygen out of water. lol.
well thanks for explaining but this could be shortend to like 2 minutes...
what warm water places can you wear wetsuit and dive gloves and dive hood and dive boots
can you make a video about drysuit
17:11 is that a crewmember what is that??
No, not a crew member, but it was a shoe with fabric straps around it. I remember seeing that and trying to puzzle out why they would have wrapped a shoe/fabric around the mechanics, but it seemed intentional, not necessarily a result of the wreck. That’s purely speculation though. 💭
@@bluedescentphotos ok thanks for the reply. heart was literally in my mouth when i saw that at first, great footage btw!
It's so rare such through footage of a large wreck's interior. Amazing job, I often think that one day on wrecks too deep or dangerous smaller more capable mini ROVs can be used. Give it 10 more years and we may have that capacity. Excellent work.
Thank you, we worked very hard to capture it and hope to do so with more wrecks in the future.
I'm lucky to find a photo of young Wes Skiles.
What would I wear to keep my feet dry? I'm from Connecticut and want to wear a wet suit for surf fishing.
Hm, you could wear neoprene socks that would keep your feet warm, but the only thing I know of that keeps you totally dry when submerged is a drysuit which wouldn't be practical for surfing...
I would love an artifact from the Doria. Such an amazing ship, and a romantic era for liners. 👍
Congratulations!This documentary was beautifully shot.I will check out other wreck diving vids you all produced.Thank you very much for sharing this and the very fine work you put into this project!!!!!!!
Thank you so much!
Cool video. I’m not a diver but I heard about ccr’s and was so intrigued on how it would work. Also glad you brought up how pressure increases as you increase depth, something someone like me never would have thought about.😀
I love you. Super cute . Also great information. I want to be your student. Blessings and love. Blessings underwater to you as well.
Nice video very well done 👍 now would love to see you guys do a video on the Carl D Bradley food for thought 💭
My uncle survived this wreck. Thank you for uploading.
That is incredible to hear, thank you!
So how did the other divers die n y'all didn't
Cave diving is an extreme sport, but like all extreme sports with the proper training, risks can be managed and the sport can be enjoyed. There are many avid cave divers that explore this system on a regular basis quite safely.
Cool retrievals! And i think barnacle "glue" is one of the toughest found in nature.
When will we see the B-29 tail start to appear
It is unfortunate how everything is drying up.

What a fantastic remarkable job you did filming the dive! Very impressive!
Thank you so much!!
No way in hell I’d go that far in . 😂
Niccccce fit....😁💖💖💖💖💖👍
If the lake gets low enough it might be a good idea to pull it up and put it in a museum in the area so nobody comes taking pieces or damage it in any other way.
While it's still in the water... guys up for selling some scrap metal?
This will be an interesting hiking destination in two years
Yes, it is very sad to hear about how low the lake is =(
Jenny didn't ask to be scared twice ;( Thanks for the video. I needed it broken down to fully understand. There's a lot that goes into diving. Its a fascinating hobby to learn about before i even commit to it.
Lol Jenny is very jumpy! and glad you liked it. We want to do some more videos in this series. There is alot to learn about diving. The first step is getting that open water class and just getting in the water!
In a few months, I'm going to walk to it.
Hate the overlaid music on cave diving videos.
With the lake being so low, what depth is the plane at now?
Idk but I’m waiting til I can make a trip to walk it. Wonder if it dries up the AF will finally do something with it
its at about 80-90ft now... november 2022
I really thought i was the only person who thinks about this! Most people have no idea its even down there. The day its exposed ill be there.
Too scary for me !
Beautiful ❤️
Nice video. What would be dilution ratio of water and vinegar to remove saltwater corrosion and for how many minutes the part should be exposed to the solution? BTW, I subscribed to your channel to learn how to proper maintain my regulators. Thanks.
Very well done!!
Thank you!
