at last ow cert.

[DIVER_11]

At last after all the storm delays i got my ow cert.
WOW that was a blast can't wait to get back in the water there's
a lot of water out there. where to go now thats the ? of the day

the boat dives were great besides the five foot waves the first day that made geting on the boat rough but i guess you got to get use to that.

see ya under the water !!!!!!!!!!

:medal: Yay! :cheering: Yay!

Yeah, I call the Molasses Reef Buoy at Key Largo when it's cold here (37F today) to hear how it is there. Today at noon: Air 75F, Water 79F. Nice. I'll be back around there in 4 weeks!

Boat diving in 5 footers sound better than beach diving in 5 foots. I learned how to board in 8-12s there. :shiner1: Can be dangerous. You want your BC empty when you go for the ladder.

five footers, that'd be me on the beach
can't be diving in that much swell
i tried it once, still got the scars to prove it
not something i'm keen to repeat

Congrats on the new cert. 5 ft. ughhhhh I get sea sick on 1ft. I remember the Jersey days when 5ft. was a good day, I just quit eating before the trip :thinkingo

Good on ya. If you're still enthusiastic about diving after dealing with 5 footers in your OW class, you're going to love it! It's all down hill from there.

I only dove in conditions like that once that I can recall, and that was for a rec. trimix checkout dive. Trying to climb back aboard with doubles and two stage bottles was quite an experience!

Congratulations on finally getting your cert. Keep learning!

Agree with that. It's a good idea to do that on every dive. This way you will not have any problems when the waves start climbing.

Dive Safely
