I speak some Spanish, enough that I can muddle through interactions in hotels, restaurants, cabs, etc. I'd like to be able to do the same on a dive boat.

Does anyone have a reference somewhere showing common diving-related vocabulary in Spanish and English? I have dictionaries and general reference works but they tend to be inaccurate for specialized usage like this.
 
I used the PADI website in Spanish to help me along with dive related vocabulary. Also the OW manual when I had spare time between dives once my Spanish was a little better.

It's a great question you've asked, hope there's a better answer.

Regards,
Cameron
 
I don't know of any specialized resource, but if there's specific things you want to know I could list them for you.
