Place to Train in MD

[chaptico marshal]

Looking for a place in Maryland to do dry suit training where instructor can see five divers at a time in 20- 30 feet of water. Can anyone help?

Check out East Coast Divers in Hagerstown. They could take you up to one of the quarries or Mt Storm. If you wanted to go a bit farther or they were too busy I have openings this winter.We'd do pool sessions at Dive World in Washington, Pa, and checkouts at Mt Storm. The lake never freezes and is warmer than any other places close. It can get down into the mid 40's though in Jan/Feb. What exactly is the experience level of the divers and when do you want to get it done. I offer the SEI Diving drysuit course, have over 125 dives dry in water temps from 72-38 degrees, under the ice, and to depths of 155 feet. I also offer discounts to law enforcement, public safety, and current and past military. Vis at Mt Storm is usually better in winter and seeing 5 divers at time possible IF they do not tear up the bottom. If you do not have any experience I would most likely divide you up into 2 groups for the first 2 dives and based on how you get through that mesh the team for the final two. Safety is priority one.
