Greetings! I have wanted to dive forever and next month I'll finally get started. My 13 yr old daughter and I have signed up for SSI OW classes and we are both excited to start our adventures. Right now we are pouring over the instructional manual and DVD impatiently waiting for our chance to get wet.
I searched out this forum because I wanted to find a place where I can better educate myself on SCUBA. Since I'll be diving with my 13 yr old I feel even more compelled to ensure that I have the knowledge to keep us both safe and prepared for any situation.
I have always loved the ocean. I did get the chance to do a good deal of snorkeling when I was stationed in Hawaii a few years back. I'm still kicking myself for not getting certified during my 3.5 yrs there but at least I'm FINALLY making it happen.
One of my hopes is that sharing the SCUBA experience with my daughter now will help to keep us close during the rest of her teenage years.
Now, I'll get back to lurking and might pipe up now and then to ask a question. Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences and knowledge in this forum!
Thanks!
Craig
