I did my NAUI OW with ScubaQuest and it was what they called an accelerated class. I forget if it was 3 or 4 days but they did tell us there was a lot of information to absorb in a short period of time. I walked away very comfortable with my abilities and pleased with the way the class was presented.

I tried again, as a forward this time.

I seem to be getting your PMs fine so if you still don't have it, PM me an email address I can use to contact you because I have had buggy experience with these forums.

class was this past weekend, all but one person completed the course. But scuba isn't for everyone. Everyone was extremely happy with the course and looking forward to diving in the near future. That one person has the option of completing the dives in the future though if she wants.

Regardless of what some of you want to think Diving is not rocket-surgery nor is it an eliite group of people, I know 2 people who never took the course and after a few dives where better than people who took open and advanced padi. It's very people dependant on who can get it faster.

Back in the day I took the 3 day (24 hour) course, and still thought it was drown out a little took much. Most of diving is common sense.

In the north I can see a little more time being spend learning though, because most of the nive in the north east and west coast are dive dive , low vis, and strong current. But down here in Miami vis is 100' or more, almost no current, and most dives are fairly shallow. The class teaches and goes over EVERYTHING that an extended class teaches, you just need to be able to absorb all the information. If your not as sharp anymore than it's not for you. I have to admit that of all the times I've done this class I've only had one person over 40-50 years old, and he washed out. This class is not for everyone.
