Who's going to be there? I will be attending this afternoon.

Any news on whether the air model is going to stick and actually be available or whether it will be pushed back again? What is the expected price of the Air? Will it be better to buy now and upgrade or wait a week or 2 after release? (800+450=1250 if I was to buy tomorrow so is the expected...

Can you guys please take the time to list a breakdown of a "Long" open water course. I am intrigued and would like to present the proposal to my bosses to offer an extended course should students wish to choose it. Thus having our usual 4 day OW (1 day theory) (1 pool day) (2 ow days) or have a...

Hey John, the island of Cu Lao Re is not dived by any companies that I know of as it is across from Quang Ngai. The Cham Islands are a bit further north and are parallel with Hoi An and a marine park so a bit better protected. Cham Islands are dived by Blue Coral diving, Cham island divers and...

Talk to Scuba Supply (Vietnam), Dive supply (Thailand), Rainbow Runners (Malaysia) or one of the other regional distributors and ship it in. Wander round your local dive shops and ask them, just because your competitors doesn't mean that they are enemies. A decent tank company is shenyang gas...

Unsure I am in Thailand however or you could post it to a uk address then I could get it transferred.

Would you ship internationally?

As far as I know there are multiple investors/owners of mermaids. Of the ones I have met, one is an Australian and the other is of Korean features but sounded American in accent, I didn't ask him where he was from.

As stated just go to the underside of the leaver and lift up if you cant do it with your fingers then use a flathead screwdriver to slowly lift it. Your regs might be salt encrusted a little so if you still cant open it soak it in fresh water for an hour or two and try again. I find mine easy to...

What is sustaining status? How much is it overall to keep both certs active per annum if you don't mind me asking?

On the khram an extra 5 minutes looking into the gloom is a bit tedious. I had to stay with a customer (PADI instructor qualified) who went into deco as he had put his computer in the most conservative setting on a previous dive and forgotten. I did a safety stop at 12 metres for 3 minutes as I...

Some divemasters lead in different ways, on different dive sites and with different customers. Some days I am a dive leader and try and lead customers like sheep to different dive sites so that they can tick off boxes in their head of what they have seen. Other times I merely dawdle along...

lol RJP good equation. As stated I would like to grow dreadlocks at some point through curiosity, I think I will get my hair cut until I find a permanent position and then begin growing out my hair longer with the potential of growing dreads at a later date.

I dive with a swatch fun scuba watch. It has a depth gauge and automatic dive timer which start at the beginning of your dive. It is also very good for checking and improving your dive profile as at the end of the dive it will play the dive at 60x speed (1min = 1 second) or if your free diving...

Thankyou for your replies however I am still divided on the issue.

Thankyou for your replies you have given me some definite food for thought.

In what way? best place to train? Best place to be put under pressure and rapidly build your certs level? best place to really enjoy the diving and have a slow but steady flow of customers?

sorry to be late to the proceedings but would just like to mention many of the DM's working on the boats are infact customers the same as you guys just we are interns therefore even less well regarded. When I am a DM on the boat I try my best to make sure that we have as many dive leaders as...

I am a mermaids divemaster and we have IIRC 4 shops in pattaya and one in Bangkok at "Amarin plaza" I believe but don't quote me on that. It costs 2500thb per day when you buy 4 days you get the 5th free if you want to add equipment rental the price goes up. If you meet up with me before hand I...
