Question How old are you and how long certified? Poll- please take part!

I am 42 as I make this post. I got certified in 2013, but my actual first scuba dive has been in 1996. I made around 12 "discovery dives" until I finally decided to get certified.

Bravo to you my friend. Just take the SCUBA ‘easy does it’ I have have to do the same. Headed to FL to reunite w/my vdh Doublehose friends in Mid-April. I am looking forward to some easy dives with clear water, warm, no current ( except the drift dive in Rainbow River ). I have Myasthenia Gravis, AFIB and blind in my left eye but really want to get wet. I am not really old but I have to contend with these conditions. The AFIB I have been diving with before no problems. If interested in meeting really interesting and eccentric divers, please DM me.

I'll turn 65 later this year, and got certified first in 2020. A year ago, four years after first certification, I had a total of about 40 dives. I decided to get serious about it, got about 80 dives in, and passed GUE Tech Fundamentals a couple weeks ago.
