    How good of a swimmer do you need to complete open water course

    I was in maybe the worst shape of my life when I got certified. (Less than a year ago, I am now in the best shape of my life.) I think my instructor had us do 400m. The key is slow and steady. I was the last person to finish my laps by like 5 minutes. I wasn't about to fail my class by...

    How to teach student that cannot breathe thru their mouth

    I taught my 4 year old nephew how to breath from a snorkel in 5 minutes in a pool. (Just had him plug his nose with his fingers while I held him.) I don't understand how an adult can't do that. I also don't understand how someone signs up for a scuba class without knowing how to do that. But...

    Whale shark tour - Isla Mujeres

    To piggy back on the OP. Anyone know of an outfit that lets you scuba with them instead of snorkeling? I really hate breathing out of a snorkel.

    Aladin Sport won't connect to pc

    That's a pretty huge oversight on Microsofts part. Hard to believe that there isn't a person who worked on Windows 10 who doesn't have an IrDA device. I still think there is an element of user error going on on my part because I can't get it to work on my wife's MacBook either.

    Protocol for discovery dives

    My first time was a Discovery dive in Cabo, my family and I chartered a boat for the day and organized with a dive shop for them to join us for the first part for the dive. There were 8 of us, and were split 3,3,2 between 3 instructors. On the boat ride out they explained the basic concepts...
