I don't dive with my Eddyline but if you do feel free to post some pics here. These pics were posted on the Eddyline facebook page, my guess is they are from the east coast. Pictures are from Lake Mead, from a photo shoot. No wonder the pics look so great.

I haven't tried it but it does sit a bit high out of the water.  Last year when Omar and i were in Tahoe I was practicing some self rescue and i banged the crap out of my knees pretty bad.  I also worry about the center hatch being a bit flimsy for my style of flopping in.  :smt003

I do plan on trying it though, it might be completely different with a wet suit on to provide floatation and protection to my knees.

I do love the boat though it's just not my dive boat...yet.

What makes you think East coast?  Not sure about the NorthEast but none of the states I lived in down in the South allowed the spearing of stripers.

Just a guess, I can't say for sure. If you really want to know I can look into it.  I just thought it was cool to see someone diving off of their Eddyline. I think Ken Jan uses his to dive also.

absolutely I love diving with my eddyline 12. Its a good boat all around.  Its light enough I can drag it around like a float and very stable for re- entry.

I asked Eddyline and it was from Lake Mead. I was totally off.  :smt044

Not the best but my dive buddy is probably one of the most prolific divers in the western hemisphere....getting him to take pics of me makes as much sense as asking madbum to stop chugging swill for a second to get pics of me with a craft brew.     :smt001
