Pilaar39:Keep getting a request to make my first post here, so here goes:
My wife and I are relatively new divers.. we got our PADI OW certification about 2 years ago. We did our classroom and pool training at the local dive shop (Scuba 2000) just north of Toronto. They typically do their open water certs in the year-round cold waters of Tobermory, so we opted to fly south to Ft. Lauderdale and do ours there with ProDive in warmer water(neither of us has any interest in cold water diving!)
Since then, we have done a number of dives off Florida and in the Caribbean. We are up to 21 dives now, and hoping to do some more this October in Florida.
Being relative newbies, we (or I) have lots of questions and have joined this board hoping to get answers and advice from the more experienced divers.
Aside from diving, we also enjoy motorcycling (2001 Harley FLSTC) and target shooting (currently .22 cal rifle, but hoping to start pistol soon).
I am 57 and retired from a 34 year career with IBM Canada.
So.. there you have it.. my first post here!
You are going to be so glad you found this board. I have been diving for 15 years, yet have learned so much in the short time I have been on SB.
Welcome to SB!
