Yap & Palau Trip

Let's Get Geared Up For Micronesia!
 
It is not too early to begin to assess your gear needs for our trip to Yap and Palau in the Federated States of Micronesia.  In addition to taking stock of what you have and what you need, you should make plans now to have the scuba gear serviced.  Yearly maintenance is the best way to keep your gear in tip top shape forever.
You should have at a minimum: 

  • BCD
  • Regulator
  • Dive Computer
  • Mask
  • Snorkel
    Fins
  • Wetsuit
  • Dive Knife
  • Dive Light
  • Safety Sausage
  • Save a Dive Kit

Some other things that are nice to have include:
           -   Slate
           -   Noise Maker
           -   Camera
           -  Battery Chargers (Current in both Yap and Palau is 110v so there is no need        to worry about transformers.)
           
Be prepared to bring whatever gear you may need.  Purchase of specialty gear is difficult (and expensive) in that part of the world.  American dollars are acceptable currency on both islands and ATM machines are available (although not always readily available.)  Plan your currency needs accordingly.  In room safes are provided at our hotels.  
 
We'll check in with you again next week!  In the meantime if you have questions, please send Jane an email at janes@atlanticedge.com
 

 

From Trip Leader Jane Spencer:

 

Hello All:
I am so pleased to be able to share Bill's note with you.  He sounds excited and ready for our group.  Bill will dive with us and I plan on taking his Manta Diver Specialty Course.
In this picture of Bill he is drinking a Stone Money Brew from the infinity pool.  That's the Mnuw in the background, a fabulous Indonesian wooden sailing vessel that serves as the restaurant and pub on the Manta Ray Bay property.
We are close to a full house on this trip now, so if you are still considering joining us...don't wait any longer!  We don't want you to miss out on the adventure.
I'll be communicating with you about trip details and getting ready in the coming months.  For now, make sure your passport is current and you have an up to date tetanus vaccination.  No specific inoculations are required for this travel, but check with your physician to make sure you are good to go!
Cheers
Jane Spencer
