    Drowning Doesn't Look Like Drowning

    Interesting ... my PADI instructor would not pass you unless he thought you would be a safe diver (and, he would do more training if that was what was needed to make them so, but he has also refused those with an attitude that did not make them safe to dive with) ... it is the instructor that...

    Drowning Doesn't Look Like Drowning

    Best signalling equipment from the searchers point of view

If you can find one of the mirrors with a red reflective side grab it. In my solo class and the solo classes I taught after that I...
