To Much Weight and Not Enough Time

Hi Folks,

I'm the new kid on the block, well not exactly a kid, I'm 49. hehehe

I'm a fairly new diver, only been at it a couple of years and sad to say only have 147 dives. Did great my first year and go over 100 in, but then I lost my job, therefore my dive funds got severly crimped.

The majority of my diving has been in the cold, low vis and dark quarries and lakes of MO. I've been diving a HOG setup since I finished my AOW and really. I chose this setup because I knew before I hit the water the first time I was going to go Tech so I could dive wrecks.

I've dove doubles and have quite a few drysuit dives under my belt. Unfortunately, the doubles don't work to well for my bad knees so I'm looking at the Rebreather for a lighter system to dive.

I'm currently making plans to move to Phuket and will be pursuing my Rebreather and TDI tech courses there once I complete my move. In the mean time, look out for me asking a bunch of dumb questions.
