GUE Open Water Course -- looks like it's happening

[TSandM]

Just happened to be doing some online shopping and checked out the Fifth Dimension site. Their January calendar includes a GUE Open Water class! Description is HERE.

What is REALLY astonishing is the price . . . unless I've lost it, it appears to be $179, equipment rental included. That's LESS (by a significant amount) than I paid for my PADI class. And a lot less than any of us were guessing on the recent thread about this course.

I have a hard time believing I'm reading this right.

Yep, Far cry from the $1200 Bob Sherwood was predicting or even the $800 the MHK was charging for his SSI??? version.

I think there is an error there.

Has to be. The requirements don't seem right.

Its probably a cut and paste job from their SSI classes


Edit: It is a cut and paste thing

What would be the discount if I'd bring my own gear?

 

[TSandM]

Somebody ought to let them know . . . their phones will be ringing off the hook with this one, I'd imagine.

Equipment Requirements:

• Snorkel

This should add a whole new dimension to the snorkle debate threads.

Darn. I gave mine away to a needy buddy...

No, that one is real. I went ahead and jumped on that one.
