Hi Stubby,

That almost sounds like an insult. Anyway, welcome! We're glad to have you here and are looking forward to becoming friends.

Local diving is great, it'll keep you active and your skill level up. OTOH, don't rule out trips. We have some great ones coming. I hope you can join us on some.

:sweetie: someone else that knows where Alki is!!!! :clapping: to the board. I'll be diving at Alki tomorrow, around 9:30 am. If you can't join me this time, don't worry, I come over most weekends. Glad to see another native on the board.

Most people might not be familiar with a stubby squid. But one of the coolest critters I've ever seen is a stubby squid, which I saw at Alki on a night dive. Cephalopods are my favorites!

PM me and we'll go diving sometime soon.

:teeth: stubbysquid...glad you stopped by and hope that you will call this home. There are a lot of knowledgeable people here that are ready and willing to help in anyway, all you have to is ask.

Don't forget to take a look at our website at SingleDivers.com. We are constantly upgrading and would love to see you on one of our upcoming trips.

Again, welcome to our little place on the net where having fun is what it is all about.

Hi Girl!!! Welcome!!! I am in the process of getting a drysuit so I can dive with you all in PNW and in California with the cool folks there! Not to mention just being "DRY" everywhere else!!! :)

We are soooooooooo glad you found us and I hope you'll feel free to post regularily!!! Fun people like YOU help keep the board fun for all of us!!! So jump right in and make yourself at home.

As for trips....once I get that drysuit I'll be wanting you all to do a regional dive so just be forewarned....in the meantime you'll find me on ALL the warm water trips which we hope you'll join us on as well such as Bonaire in June....(more info under our singles trips) and North Carolina wreck and sharkdiving in July and October with more destinations coming soon!!!

The trips are really the BEST part of SingleDivers.com and it is what makes us different from anyone else.....we go DIVE!!! And make MORE new friends. :)

On our first singles trip in January 26 people who didn't know anyone else all joined together as strangers but left as friends....most of whom are active on the site as we speak. So you get to dive...meet new friends....and have a blast!!! Is there any other way to do it??? :welcome:

SS- take my advice and get out of here while you can. The "family" here at SD consists of a bunch of sexually preoccupied people who do some diving when they can break away from their addiction to this board!

Sorry to hear about the loss of your buddy... hope it was just a relocation rather than anything more permanent.
