    Looking for good charter in Bradenton Florida for Labor Day weekend

    Looking for a shop that has a small charter boat. If anyone here is familiar with the area(30 to 40 miles south of Tampa), any info would be greatly appreciated. I know diving the gulf is not the best of conditions but trying to combine another trip with a few dives as well. Thanks Ldreamin

    Commercial Dive Schools

    Thank you Dan for your post. It's nice to hear from someone that's "been there and done that". My son does have thick skin, a sence of humor and is a hard worker. I've told him it's going to be hard on his body. He has done some reading on this but I don't think he's done enough. I'm printing...

    Commercial Dive Schools

    My son (who is not a diver) is interested in becoming an underwater welder. I've tried to check the internet (not real good at surfing) for schools for him to check out. The only ones I've found in the states are in Washington, New Jersey, and California. I know there has to be lots more. We...

    Stupid or embarrassing things you did when you where training?

    On my 1st dive after getting certified we were on a wreck in Panama City, Fl. I was overwhelmed by all the cool things underwater that I'd not experienced before. My buddy was experienced and should have watched me better. hehehe Anyway, just off the wreck there were sand dollars on the ocean...

    There's 1 major flaw with your story ID... There is not a 21st Blvd. in downtown Atlanta. I'm in Atlanta everyday and haven't seen that one yet?? And as for the crayons..... I have witnessed men using them more. Maybe it is just "who" is there. lol Ldreamin

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    Capt. Dave, You have said a lot throughout your post and it makes me wonder, what exactly are you looking for here? Are you looking for someone with no experience that has nothing better to do for the next 3 years that you can train your way? :confused: There's been lots of input but...

    Does gender make a difference?

    To me it doesn't matter if an instructor is male or female. It depends more on the person. An instructor should be knowledgeable and patient. Everyone is different and it's more about compatibility. I've seen instructors both male and female that I will and will not dive with. Ldreamin

    Safety Stop Dillema....???

    I have had this happen to me before and believe it or not it was my ex boyfriend that became an instructor. We were in Cozumel and he took off with some friends(taking pics) and left me. I did have a problem on that dive with my ears(which I did what I needed to to be safe) but he knew nothing...

    OMG!!!!! I can't believe anyone is that stupid. I love the water and diving(as we all do), and even love doing shark dives(gets your heart pumping) BUT this is ridiculious. NO WAY I want to be that close to a great white. Makes you wonder...."what were they thinking?" :confused: Ldreamin
