I've got have my PADI open water. Did the first two dives, then didn't have time to do the second two. It's been over 2 years and just haven't had the time to go and do it.

My fiancee' is a certified dive instructor (NAUI) and is teaching me now. I will do my open water tests during an August vacation to Vancouver island, and have my certification for our Mexican honeymoon in November.

You don't need to swim to dive, just sink!!
Anyways, I'm a Divemaster & I did my swiftwater rescue tech many years ago. I still go quite often on our local wrecks with some of the guys & gals at work.

I have advanced certificates with both PADI & NAUI (remember them to be more popular back in the day ) My instructor would teach up here during the summer & head down to the caribbean to take out tours & do some photography during the winter. I wanted to become a commercial diver, but wasnt very favorable for family life.

I have 2 certifications, PADI Advanced Open Water Diver and the Open water diver. I was trying to work my way up to PADI Master Scuba Diver but I moved here to Vancouver and I refuse to dive in cold water after trying it once...
I have not gone on a dive for like 2 years now I used to get to go about once a month in the keys). Our last dive was the Great Barrier Reef though ![]() Last edited by GreenSpottedPuffer; 05-11-2009 at 05:54 PM. |
