FWIW, you should probably be looking for Public Safety Divers. A recreational SCUBA "Rescue Diver" might, if you're lucky have the skills to assist their buddy. Accident response during a race is far beyond any training a recreational SCUBA "Rescue Diver" would have received.

The post was placed to ascertain serious interest and Public Safety Divers are also being contacted. People with the correct qualifications will and are being vetted. If you yourself have interest please do let us know.


To DiveMonkeyDive:
Sailing will be taking place on an open schedule from October and possibly longer. The diver may need to be flexible when it comes to being contacted for being ready for duty as it will depend on previous days sailing and weather conditions.
