new northbay member

Greetings from the northbay. new kayak owner here, bought myself a jackson cuda 12 a few days ago. went with the cuda because of the hatch that allows almost full access of the hull. ill be in the saltwater most of the time, because of the great spearfishing and abalone diving we have on the sonoma and mendo coast. i joined this forum site to see how some members rig up their yaks for diving, proper maintenance, and dive connections, im also a member over at NCUH (same username) and know there are a ton of you guys on this site. so i guess my first order of business would be to get my yak ready for diving. any tips and tricks would be greatly appreciated. 
cheers,
  Derick
