I'm a Fish!
just curious as to how we could get more divers in the water more often!
 
Retirement!!!!!
 
+1 on retirement. 14 years to go at a minimum.

Also a large earthquake that would turn Arizona into a coastal state would help. Sorry CA.
 
i work the grave yard shift 10pm-6am plenty of time off to go diving if i plan two or 3 days in advance to adjust my sleep seclude

my problem is all my local (live 10-15min away) buddies are broke and my dive club plans dives 2-3hr away with less than a days notice

I live in Soma Shi in Japan, near where the big earthquake hit March 11 and subsequent tsunami. It didn't help the diving and it did kill thousands of people, amongst many others some students at the schools I teach lost their lives. Careful what you wish for. I realise no harm was intended, just saying...

More customers and/or my own dive boat. I still have to charter for my classes..and pay for my own pleasure dives.. which means I don't have an excuse to go out solo whenever I feel like it.
 
Strange percentages on the poll. Multiple 50% and 25%...??
 
Your poll is missing my answer:

Someplace to dive that doesn't require a 4 hour plane trip.
