We have used DRI and ERDi. Positive experiences with both.

Congrats again. No small feat I am sure. How did you find the course? In line with the other DRI courses? Provide any new insight that you lacked before?

How many start and how many finished? Awesome job!

You want to get hired as a public safety diver (full time)? Most public safety divers are volunteer or work full time for a department that also has a dive team as a collateral duty.

Tbone, that is a solid idea.

Jencks, thanks for sharing. Looks like a nice set up!

Good morning everyone, I am a public safety diver. I am considering a wrist computer to be used as a bottom timer, calculate ascent, NDL, etc. Nothing too fancy. I mostly dive in no viz murky water. I need to be able to see the display (backlight or etc) ad durable. Any suggestions? Looking for...

Ultimately we would like to have less trucks and trailers. Trying to combine a few things.

Valid questions. We do more than dive rescue/recovery. We are a full "service" search and rescue team. The trucks we have explored in the past have more than enough room for a diver to sit down at his station and strap in and go. We will still be able to have 6 seats/dive set ups ready at all...

Does anyone have a Dive Rescue Truck? We currently use a trailer, but our long term goal is to buy a truck. Sample picture below. I can find some pictures of our trailer if people would like.

Thank you everyone.

PVC framed tunnel. The diver has a black out mask. We have a volleyball net strung through the tunnel that is weighted down in various places.

Good morning everyone, My team is looking to purchase 6 new complete sets of dive equipment? Does anyone have a list or proposal for new equipment already put together? We are talking FFMs, drysuits, fins, regulators, BCDs, hoses, etc. The works. Thank you!

What does everyone else on the team do? What team do you belong to in Iowa? I am located in South Dakota.

Any issues with a communication system and hood? We use the OTS hardwire system and have found neoprene hoods greatly reduce the ability to hear. Any better luck with the Viking suit with latex hood?

Ryan, what size are the boots? The suit is new? Did the suit fit smaller than expected or was it too big? If interested, preferred method of payment?

East river. Almost zero vis in most lakes. We have a few quarries that offer 25 ft or so. As a public safety dive team, we dive in almost zero vis (lakes and river).

Hello everyone, While in the Marine Corps I always wanted to dive. My work schedule was hectic and I was busy finishing my college degree. Now I work as a manufacturing manager, and a part time emergency manager. I joined a search and rescue team two years ago. We conduct water rescue and dive...
