North Carolina --soon to be-- diver

[JC Fedorczyk]

Hi Folks. Just found this website while doing some research on diving. My Girlfriend and I went to Saba last year to see where my relatives are from and went on a snorkling trip with the rest of the divers. Needless to say when we saw the divers down below and what we were missing out on we both wanted to get certified.

Certification classes start next month and then we are planning a trip in December on Blackbeard's. Probably something before that just to keep the skills sharp.

So I'll say in Advance. Good to meet you.

Welcome to SB and have fun getting certified.

Glad you found us! This is a great place to spend your SI, but watch out, it's addictive!

You'll find more than a couple of folks from NC hang out in NC Wreck Divers

Visited Saba last June, loved it! Now I'm trying to convince someone to go back with me.

Divers-Supply in charlotte is 5 minutes from my house and after my girlfriend made some calls they came highly recommended. So if all goes well the 2 of us will be open water certified by the end of next month.

One of these times I'm going to find a cheap hobby/interest.....

In addition to ScubaBoard, you might want to hook up with the Charlotte Hammerheads. They're a great club, representing most of the shops in the area, and they meet monthly at Midtown Sundries on West W.T. Harris. You can get more details at www.charlottehammerheads.com. The club president is Craig Hedricks, and he's very good at helping get you hooked up with good people who can help you through the initial learning curve.

Welcome to the sport!
