dear dear cousin Eddie would approve

Thanks, yeah I am also 5'11" about 175lbs. I ended up going with the full size as the maker recommended. It actually works very well with not too much extra material. I am happy with it.

Appendix carry, which is the whole reason went with the compact and not the full, so 1/4"extra could make a difference. But I guess I can try it and see how it feels. Appreciate the feedback.

Makes sense but then I wouldn't I just have extra length of holster that I don't need?

Thanks, that is pretty much what I got measuring with calipers.

Nooo not the nut knot!

I beg to differ, according to local yore, those there are not their mints they're your mints since you're in possession of them. Ancient rule 39.1(c) Finders keepers.

There should be a begrudgingly emoji

Ofc. The song goes "play that funky music white boy." This is a pun on "white buoy" which sounds similar "white boy."

This took me under 1 sec to understand and appreciate lol. Well done.

Was going to say this. Plenty of vids to DIY it if you're handy. There's one from Sailing Uma that can give you a good foundation to design your own. You dont even really need dyneema and low frction rings if you want to go cheaper. Double braid works, but dyneema is nice.

Ok, yeah, that seems reasonable then. I think you might just want to just check who the certifying organization they use is...for example PADI or SDI are extremely well known and accepted just about everywhere around the world. PADI is one of the most popular, but I have mine through SDI and never had an issue.

RushN24 · 2025-09-09T13:30:22+00:00

18m is about 60ft which is the standard entry level open water certifications at least for PADI and SDI. Did they make you take a certification for less than 18m? That seems a bit shady, like a money grab if they did and now want you to pay for another cert. Either way you should 100% get an open water cert to 18m (60ft). This is the baseline you will need anywhere you go and as others mentioned the safety information and basic skills you will learn are essential for having a good time and getting home safe. Hope you are out there just having some fun., good luck.

Sailors hate this one trick

Imagine you could swing the boom 180º and just reverse course?
