Hello Everyone!
I have a question for yous guys. I went to the orientation at LDS for a PADI DM class, got all the info, costs, schedules ect. To get started i gotta bring in credentials, signed medical questionaire, payment and logbooks documenting 40+ logged dives.
I have 80ish lifetime dives, all not documented, that's where the hiccup is. I hope you guys can help me sort it out.
Here are the facts of my case:
My Sunnto Dive Manager has 40 logged dives on it (some may not be long enough to be counted)
The paper dive log i have now has dives 25-50 logged on it (these are all in the SDM log as well)
My first 17 dives I have logged in a txt file on my Laptop (ala Doggie Howser MD) I did this to have a copy in case I lost my logbook, but I lost interest in doing this part and stopped.
The OW training book that had dives 1-12 has long disappeared into the ether...12-24 are in a box somewhere in my families house in PR- if it hasnt gotten thrown away. At one point those did show my logs at the shop (now closed) and C-Card was updated with "25 or more" logged dives. At that point I didn't bother to log dives anymore. Then took a long break.
I moved NC wherre I got interested in diving again, got more training and started keeping a log again...
So...
That leaves me at 40 (from the SDM)
or
25 from the paper dive log, 17 from the txt file makes 42...
Am I looking at this the right way? should I transfer the 17 into a proper dive log?
thanks!
