I met my mentor, who has become a valued friend, through a Scubaboard-organized dive. I've made long-term friends through other, non-scuba, BB's, too.

Oh yeah ... this place has influenced my social and professional life big-time.
I've met many local dive buddies and developed some strong friendships.
I've hooked up with students ... some of whom travelled large distances to take my classes.
I even went on a wonderful vacation to Bonaire with 30 fellow ScubaBoardans ... most of whom I would never have had the opportunity to meet were it not for this forum.
For me, the influence of ScubaBoard extends far beyond the limits of the Internet ...

I met my favorite dive buddy and several "new" friends here.

Its great to see so many people meeting friends/dive buddies on this board. Nice to know that there have been a few "hook ups" too.
I've met a number of divers, mostly from SoCal but also as far away as Guam. It's been a lot of fun. Of course I'm still looking to meet my S.O., and this could be a good place to do it because most likely (definitely?) she will be a diver!

Well I am really enjoying the people on this board and I am going to take a trip next May with some of the Deep Dixie Divers.
I met a bunch of SBers in Cozumel on two different occasions. We are having a specific Rocky mtn. SB get together this weekend.
Have also made friends with a few others through PMs just because we had some things in common on our profiles.

Yes:
I won't name names to protect the innocent.
But through ScubaBoard I have met total stangers and gone to Bonaire with them
Gone to Coco View with them and others and
planned and enjoyed a Hawaii dive trip through board members assistance.
