Here is what I found with a quick Google search, however, this just what I was taught. Well, actually, I was taught that AOW divers can go to a depth of 120 ft., however, I might just be remembering that wrong. Again, I'm 15, and I've been on four dives. I'm just trying to clarify how deep you are able to go with the first rank of a diver. Thani you.
All divers can go all the way to the bottom regardless of "rank." There is no SCUBA police. I know instructors I won't dive with because they are inexperienced rubes, and some of my favorite dive partners carry a PADI Scuba Diver certificate and nothing else. They just dive a lot. And that's what matters.
