How local is your Local Dive Shop?

[mikemill]

About 20 minutes away (either 10 or 14 miles depending on the route).

The shop where I got certified is maybe a little more than a mile from the house (three to five minutes). The one I patronize now is 7 minutes from the house. I'm not even sure how many shops are within a 30 minute's drive, but it's at least half a dozen. Seattle is dive shop-rich, with tech shops, rebreather shops, a scooter manufacturer -- Just about anything you want for diving, you can get somewhere here!

I live 9 miles North of the Golden Gate bridge. We have multiple SCUBA stores in the San Francisco Bay area. There are six stores within 12 miles of my house. The one I frequent the most is 5 miles away. I also use the Teamcasa approach and let my fingers do the walking for some equipment.

Closest is 4 miles, several more within 6 to 25 miles and even more extending to 50 miles out. Between the 3 that I frequent the most, I can find about anything that I'm looking for and at a good price.

How thick is double glazing.
As soon as I turn the key I'm there.

Just kidding but for most of my customers I'm within 15-25min.
