I do have to be present for all the others. Make ups will be done as time and weather permit and if needed. I need the following Log filled out for each dive and given to me at the end of the class. You can do calculations right on the log. You can download the Docx file and print these ahead of time.

Max, Lilyan and Karen all say YAY and Thank You!!!

 

[The Chairman]

The class is half full as of this morning.

 

[bethie]

Any chance of there doing a rescue diver course while we are there? I am planning to do that in the Keys after the trip but it would be great to do it in Roatan!

 

[The Chairman]

I won't have the time or energy to do both. I can do a rescue class in Key Largo anytime you want.

Well, you're already paying for the boats, so that takes a bit of the sting out. You can be sure that it will be more fun than a barrel of sea monkeys.
