When I took my licence all those years ago I am sure I was forced to get 10 dives in........too bad it was on the Great Barrrier Reef and not in MN. or ONT.

I usually have had the dive places tell me I can't do this and that with only Open water 1. Then I show them my dive logs and they just let me dive when I want. BTW, I respect the currents and depth and am not one of those deeper and deeper maniac divers. For me it's just a relaxing quiet time.... ^

So when do you all want to meet in the South Pacific?
