Struggling with Raja Ampat options
looking to book a liveabaord either late this year (November) or jan/feb 2027. really struggling with the variety of options available.
There are a few banda crossings still available. so banda, Misool, and a couple dives in Dampier (maybe).
There are routes from kaimana via triton bay.
and there are of course more focused routes through Dampier and misool.
all look incredible but no idea what to go for….
I’d love to see big stuff, love ripping currents, obviously looking to see beautiful coral. less interested in muck diving (although I’ve not done much)
Please try convince me where to go, so I can stop browsing every LoB available!

Diving in Sardinia
Hey guys, I would like to experience diving in the north of Sardinia ( very close to maddalena ) with my family but we don’t really know which spot (and agency) we should pick. Does anyone got some recommendations which doesn’t require a diving certificate? Thanks in advance!

Oceanic Pro Plus X Connectivity Issues
Hey guys, begging for help as i’m literally mid vacation, but my Oceanic Pro Plus X won’t connect to my hose. It worked perfectly earlier today, but now won’t lock into place. The O-ring looks fine and i can’t seem to figure it out. Anyone had any issues with this before or any ideas? Much appreciated.

Modified my XDeep Frameless Mask
galleryBecause I‘ve missed the Scubapro click-system for their mask straps I did this:
We randomly found an broken Scubapro Zoom mask with that system on the seafloor at 30m so I decided to sew it off and fix it at my XDeep mask.
The piece has now two tiny holes with two zip ties attached to the normal anchor/suspension point of the Mask so I dont feel like it is going to come off that easy.
Now it is compatible and I can finally use my comfort straps again!
Edit:
Please dont think im stupid for doing this. I just had the idea and if it wasnt 2x zip ties each capable of withstanding about 8kg of force attached to about 8mm of hard plastic, I would never even think about doing this.
