Hello I just got certified for open water and went right onto Advanced. I have done 5 training dives so far. All beach dives. Can anyone suggest how the heck to get out of the ocean without falling? I have a full wet suit, 22+ lbs of lead, 80 steel tank, and my instructor says run!!! I don't think so. Someone suggested taking my BCD off and dragging it in! I don't think this is really an option because then I would never get it back on to go up the stairs. OH ya stairs. That's to get the next tank and dive again. I am doing my first boat dive this weekend and everyone tells I will never beach again after doing a boat dive. Being new that's probably not going to happen. I want to get in as many dives as possible without spending $100 plus to do so. I am happy to be certified and diving. I look forward to many fun dives. I have really enjoyed the forums and threads here and will continue to soak up as much knowledge as I can.
