    Open Water Certification - Dive Operator Recommendation?

    I agree with the recommendation of going with Nick (Deep Blue Divers). I have two sons (12-15) who both received their certs from Nick and his crew. They are patient and go out with about 6-8 divers max. My oldest, who has over 50+ dives, got cert'd, we chartered the boat for his cert. It...

    Cayman Trip 14-26 April

    Heading to the Caymans in April. I will be diving with my two sons (12 yo - OW and 15 yo - AOW). We plan on going on a 2 tank dive almost every day. This is our 4th trip to the Caymans and we dive with the same small shop off on 7 Mile Beach. Because of the ages of my sons, I usually...

    Ending Dive with 500psi

    Andy, we are warm weather divers.. shorts and rash guards.. I just want the boys to get a few hundred dives before they are on their own so they will have some experience under their belt.. BTW, they are up at Attitash the past week doing their winter thing... The 12yo (just turned 12)...

    Ending Dive with 500psi

    Andy, Since I started (and even in class), it was always stated to me to get back in the boat with no less than 500psi. Yes, after I got up the stairs on the boat and he took the tank/bcd, he checked the psi. This was over a year ago.. I didnt want to post earlier and which island it was...

    Ending Dive with 500psi

    awap, Thanks for the response. I do use a 1000 now. The DS in the Caymans started letting me use them since the saw the wide range of time between my son and I. A plug for Nick at Deep Blue in the Caymans. At the end of the week, I did talk to the owner about it and he said the DM was new...

    Ending Dive with 500psi

    Scubaba, Thanks for the response. I guess that is really what my question was/is...Is it breaking the "rules" or "enabling a patter"? I fully understand the 500psi rule and I wasn't trying to get around that. I just didn't know if it was an acceptable practice or not. I have been on many...

    Ending Dive with 500psi

    Wookie, thats what I had thought. Especially (and I didn't mention in my initial post) is that I will only dive with a shop, recommended from here, which takes no more than 8 people. This is to ensure, as best I can, a better safety oversight. We have been to a few Caribbean Islands, and this...

    Ending Dive with 500psi

    Thanks for the reply. As for my separation, I have done this after we do our safely stop and well away from the boat as to not impede any others. I hear you when you say, a bit out of routine, (get in the water, get out of the water) but (as a new diver) I have been on many dives where folks...

    Ending Dive with 500psi

    I am a fairly new diver with a little more than 50 dives (AOW cert). I took up diving so with my two sons (12 - newly cert and 15 AOW, 50 dives). My older son and I started together and (maybe) cause I am older, I go through my air faster. So my question is this.. We most always reach...
