    yea....a mistake :D I had myself an inflatable of 20 ft.
    But if you measure from nose to tail the effective space is'nt that much.
    So....with an 11 ft (nose-tail) we can dive with 3 persons (but no girls !) :smile:
    Btw Dane, with an extra tank it's damned easy to inflate any big boat and spare your lungs :D

    Looking for dive buddy

    Hi 415gem, are you still around Dumaguete? I know this post is pretty old but I am looking for dive buddies too. Anyone else out there? I am living in Bulak (just north of Dauin) and need someone to dive with. I don't mind the occasional trip to Apo but I don't need to pay that much every time I want to dive. There is a sanctuary just in front of my house and I'm tempted many time to go solo, but as we all know, that isn't a great idea. I am Rescue certified and have roughly 150 dives. Need to add many more.

    I'm living a bit south of Dauin (Maluay) and dive mostly with a friend at a sanctuary in front of his house in Dauin.
    We could make a dive together. No problem.
    Could be a good thing as my regular buddy will leave for some monthes soon.
    Send me a PM on this forum if you are interested to dive with a jellyfish :D

    Re: looking for dive buddy

    I thought I already replied on this thread but apparently it did not go through. Yes, Jelly I am interested in diving with you. We should meet up, maybe in Dauin sometime. All I need is to find a place where I can buy/rent some tanks.
