Bon courage! I’ve just jumped on a plane but once home I’ll post a link.

See! See the light you would I knew.

Ive bought shackles a number of times like that from Amazon. If you can’t find them, let me know and I’ll dig out a link.

That’d be the Retra then, makar0n? 😝

Hey guys A mate of mine is off travelling in Polynesia, Cook Islands and Fiji later this year. He and his wife are keen drivers although not photographers. He's looking for a liveaboard recommendation. It's not an area I've ever used a liveaboard. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks! Tim

Thanks! I don't know if Seacam fits though.

I'm looking for a Subal 45-degree viewfinder if anyone has one they might be interested in selling. Preferably in the EU or UK. Thanks Tim

Hi deliamaria A warm welcome to Waterpixels. We hope you enjoy the forum. We’re delighted to have you with us. Best wishes Tim

Looks very neat, Pavel. Fits Subal too?

I'm with you, Chip, or preferring the CR replaceable batteries. I had this discussion a few weeks ago with Miso over the Vivid Leak Sentinel. The V6 also now uses a rechargeable internal battery rather than the previous versions which used easily available CR batteries. Miso explained that this was due to the increasing power consumption of the boards he was using.

I get your point, Wolfgang but is statistical comparison really relevant in something like this? 16 boat sinkings in 5 years highlights your point on poor observance of safety protocols for dive boats in Egypt. Does it really matter whether that's better or worse than, eg Raja (where I'm off to shortly!)? Fact is it's bad. There has been such massive growth in the liveaboard business and competition in Egypt perhaps it's not surprising that corners are being cut. Back in the mid-90s, when I first dived there , there was a dozen or so boats out of Sharm. Now there are what seems like hundreds. Even Marsa Alam is now packed with liveaboards. I bet corners are being cut!

Buy soon, I'd suggest!

I can't comment on the Isotta 16 but have you had a look at the Vivid Leak Sentinel V5 or V6? I've used the Leak Sentinels for about 15 years, starting with the V3, and have found them very good. They're adaptable to most housings. I use them on a Subal.
