Any other divers who live on Eleuthera?

[eleutheradiver]

I am a PADI DM living on Eleuthera in the Bahamas, and looking for someone to do some local diving with (reefs, non-penetration dives of the various ocean holes, bottle diving, or whatever else). I've got my own tank (although no compressor), and do not have a boat so I mostly stick to shore dives. I've got several lesser-known sites in mind that remain completely unexplored, and which I'm not quite comfortable soloing.

Thanks,
John

Hi, I was wondering if there are any places in or near Gregorytown, Eleuthera, to rent a tank? I have been going there for the last 3 years on mission trips and will be coming back in June for another mission trip, and then staying an extra 7 days because I love it there.

Clearwater Dive Shop in Governor's Harbour rents tanks for $12-$15 a day, and I think refills are $6 or so. I'm not aware of any tank rentals further north of there (although a guy named Jackson in Current might do tank rentals, might be work asking around there).

Let me amend that recommendation with a caveat: I visited the shop to rent a tank, and didn't: the tanks they rent all seem to date from the early 1980's (30-year-old AL80's that they don't know the history of, have not been visually inspected in years, and have plenty of dings and deep scratches on them). I wouldn't even want a pressurized one in my car, let alone on my back!

I am living in Wemyss Bight, and have a compressor and tanks, I know I'm far from you guys, but drop me a line and maybe we can work something out.
