How is the diving thier in Washington? I went snorkeling thier and did a little bit of spearfishing in the sound and it was rather cold. I would imagine that a dry suit is a must. Right?

ORCAchicks on the phone again. What she ment to tell you is that the water is cold. It stays around 44 in the winter and 55deg.F in the summer, a dry suit is a must in the winter, you can use a two-piece wet suit in the summer. Most divers including ORCAchick use a drysuit all year long. TTFN

How would I go about asking netdoc for access to the scubaducks thing?

Hey, your right it is good to see other teen divers. Is open water certification the same as advanced certification?

I guess I will answer that question: No, they both are different level of certifications. Open Water certification is to learn the basic skills to survive in water. Advanced Open Water requires a little more skills than open water - it trains you how to go deeper safety or whatever depending on the organizations (PADI, SSI, or etc...)

Thank you for the response, I had figured that is what it was but I am NAUI certified and was just making sure. I have my advanced certification, and I highly reccomend it to anyone who has not gotten it yet. It helps alot with navigation both compass navigation and natural navigation and diving down to 100 feet.

try2dive you can just PM netdoc and tell him that you are a teen diver and ask for access and you should get it! yeah open water and advanced are different..but sum1 already explained it all so i wont get into it! hehe
