I require my NAUI OW students to do a 200 yard swim. Haven't had a student unable to complete it yet. almtree: Bob
I'm PADI certified. We had to do a 200 yard swim with no fins, and IMMEDIATELY following that, a 15 minute portion of treading water WITH THE LAST FIVE minutes of treading water with your hands above your head. Then, the instructors said "if you wanna see what its like to pass the DM test, keep treading water with your hands above your head for another five minutes." There was 6 of us in the class. All 6 attempted the last 5 minutes, 2 actually did it....and yes I was one of the 2.
