    Video editing recomendations?

    We use Final Cut Pro on a mac (its not free though). It all depends on what kind of features you want in the software package and what kind of output you want to generate. Steve's suggestion above is pretty solid - Sony Vegas is pretty good.

I think the balanced scorecard approach will work really well for some businesses (ours included), yet I'm still of the mindset that its important to have the right staff for your dive business.

I'm talking formalities here - are there any reading resources on how to do this legally without getting shafted in the longer term? Can you provide examples of how...

    Pony Bottle / Spare Air

    Hi, In my experience the best thing you can do to avoid getting into trouble is keep an eye on your gauges and dive with a reliable buddy, if you're going deep set a stage bottle from the boat as a backup. That way you don't have to carry around any extra equipment thats just going to weigh...
