Hello,
I recently have decided to hit the lakes and ponds but doing so underwater. I bought the Excalibur to eventually dive with but only until now does it seem it might actually happen. I have all the gear I will need come Monday and am signing up for the general scuba classes but hunting underwater is like starting out with just metal detecting there are so many questions I need help answering.
The Excalibur has headphones how does that change the sound underwater and should I cover them up with head gear. Should I carry some sort of defensive equipment for snakes and such? I’m just a little confused about the whole process can anyone help with what I will need. I don’t know anyone that hunts for treasure underwater out here in CT and should I have a dive buddy.
These questions are a bit premature considering the classes won’t certify me for another 6 weeks but I’m excited about the prospect of what really might be under the surface. I’m not sure about hitting the ocean but lakes and ponds will be my primary target. Also does anyone know how long I will be able to stay underwater at a time? One hour, two, etc
Anyway maybe you’re getting what I’m diving at LOL... Any help would be great…
Thanks,
Jamie
