I have a mother-daughter pair, trained a few years previously with me. They're in Seattle and are asking me to do their drysuit training. If I travel up there I have one rental small suit here in our own shop but I would need another small (at worst, medium) suit. Would anyone care to recommend a shop which rents drysuits? Does anyone do that up there?
Thanks,
Bryan
 
Most shops do. I would recommend Silent World in Bellevue, because they rent Fusions, which makes the fit easy. But if you are going to be diving at Alki, I believe 5thD rents dry suits (but call first to make sure he has a small). Bubbles Below, here in Woodinville, rents dry suits, but it depends on when you would be coming up to do the class as to whether they'd be available.
 
Thanks, Lynne!
Fusion would be good, that's what I (and my rental fleet) currently have. I'll get on to Craig at Silent World, he's in fact our SDI rep.
And if this happens, I would enjoy meeting, dives/coffee/whatever. We have buddies in common and I admire your progress and openness.

Definitely try Silent World because they rent Fusions with the removable seals -- makes renting a much easier choice.
 
Keep in touch about when you're going to be here. I always enjoy meeting folks I've known from ScubaBoard. I've met a lot of nice people that way.
 
Silent world would also be my suggestion. I am an instructor there as well.
