Thanks 4 the privelege!

[D-Diver]

Hey all, I'm a new Open Water Certified diver, and I am glad I've been invited aboard. I've been putting it off for years but at 48 I felt it was now or never! So I'd like to hear to hear from anyone thats got that "Now or never attitude" be it in going places, new equipment purchases or whatever....Thanks.

Hello D-Diver, welcome to the board and to diving! And it's never too late to start. You're going to have a blast!

I know what you mean about the "now or never" syndrome. Ooo, I need a new dive computer...

Welcome, I started diving with my wife 2 years ago, at the age of 43. We're older, wiser, and safer! Feel free to pick my brain of whatever tidbits I may have with my limited experience.

Its great to have new divers, no matter what age!

I too got certified when I was 48, 2 years and 112 dives ago. Don't know why I waited so long.

Welcome D-Diver ... got certified just 18 month ago, at 45 with my husband - managed to get in 74 dives, our advanced OW, Nitrox, EFR, Fish ID & Underwater Naturalist classes, and heading to Bonaire in 4 weeks ..... I think it's been "now or never" on everything we do since that first dive!!
