This type of tote box is the preferred container on every area dive boat I have been on. I now use my fancy dive bag only to carry my drysuit and its accessories. I eventually drilled drain holes in the bottom. The tote also will not lose small items like a milk crate will. This will not be big enough to hold all items – you’ll have to pack your fins and BC separately – but it will hold everything else, is small enough to fit almost anywhere, and also avoids making a single excessively heavy load. Go to K-Mart Home Depot and spend $5 on a Rubbermaid tote box, about the size of a milk crate. Here’s is a convenient alternative that is much cheaper: These bags are also expensive, a bother to clean, and a lot less waterproof than they claim.

The sharks feast on a varied menu, including mackerel, croaker, weakfish, herring, flounder and squid.
The toothy predators weigh as much as 400 pounds, and each eats about 2 percent of its body weight in food each week. The sharks, which swim in figure-eight patterns, don’t pay much attention to the humans, or their vacuum hoses. He and another volunteer diver dress only in wet suits to use a vacuum that cleans algae and other debris from the 760,000-gallon Open Ocean Tank daily. That’s a good thing for Joel Sanders, a 50-year-old from Woodbury. The dozen sharks at the New Jersey State Aquarium In Camden are well-fed.
