First, thanks for reading this post. Scubaboard is a great place to learn and it's because of folks like you. I am closing in on my PADI Master Scuba Diver rating and there is some pressure to continue to DiveMaster creeping in to conversations down at Ye Old Dive Shop. I too have some questions:
1. As I have no desire to become an Instructor, does DM make any sense? Perhaps I should switch over to TDI or GUE after Master Scuba and pursue more individualized knowledge.
2. If I get Dive Master certification, do I have to buy yearly liability insurance to keep it? If I don't, do they take away my pro number and break my snorkel over their knee? Or can I just be an inactive DM who doesn't teach?
I would appreciate any feedback on these questions. Thanks again for reading them.
