Farm Divers

[wolf eel]

I know this is going to sound kinda dumb *** but do you have farm divers ?

How many farms are there state side as we never hear about lice and such being a problem down south. ?

If you do have farms who takes care of the divers and what type of regs do you have ?
I had to re name it as the name fish Farms moved it to non diver related topics which I think this is diver related.

Cheers

What the HECK are you talking about ???????????

Fish farms you know farming of the fish on floating farms And what type of regulations do your farm divers dive with ? And what type of insurance do they have ?

It's outside of the sport catagory so it takes a lot more training, there are a lot more rules and insurance will be based on the area and they type of diving.

Bottom line, expensive.

You guys up north have farms underwater? I thought Canada had lots of space...

How in the heck do you get a John Deere to run at 3 ATA?

Big *** stacks as they are all diesel. The problem is the viss it gets very bad. Also you keep getting that long hose caught and it really makes a mess of the binder.

Alright then I guess it was a bad question. I have never heard of any farms south of the border so thats why I asked. And many of the responses in the past have been by non farm divers.

If it is so common then do you have a regulatory body that takes care of the farms ?

Bottom line, expensive.

The farm or diving equipment ?

You want to see the vis go away quick be around when a three bottom smacks the dirt.

Good point, Gary! or maybe three....<ahem>

I would imagine that the state regulatory would have some information on the requirements. Good question though. Seems like a niche market. Hope you find the info you are looking for and not floundering around....

Don't kid yourself, lice is a big problem in some parts down here. They don't seem to bother the fish though.. :007:

There is an oyster farm on San Juan Island (Wescott Bay). Don't know if they do much diving though...
