The Best Summer Read for Divers is Available June 8

Thirty-five years of Undercurrent has produced weird tales, insightful articles, a unique look at diving’s history and plenty of quirkiness. We run stories no other publication would dare touch - - and we’re very proud of it.

For years, I’ve been hoping to bring our most unusual stories into one volume. And at last we’ve done it. A puffer bites off a diver’s finger . . . why nitrogen narcosis is a myth . . . a woman molested underwater by her dive guide . . . how to meditate at 60 feet . . . diver limericks from our readers’ contest . . . what divers did when face to face with a polar bear underwater . . . a Florida liveaboard finds floating bundles of cocaine . . . the family of a deceased diver sues his buddy for negligence . . . 30-year-old equipment predictions for the 21st century . . . a diver commits suicide underwater rather than run out of air . . . the protocol for peeing in your wetsuit . . . and yes, the diver with a cockroach in his regulator.

Our 240-page paperbound book begins to mail on June 8. So you still have time to purchase it at our pre-publication discount price of $17.95 (plus postage). Simply go to Undercurrent and click on the cover icon. You won’t find a better summer read for divers. I guarantee it.
