    :mean: The Challenge Sorry I was absent today, as I do have to make a living. I also wanted for all of the rankers to get there post in so I could give you all a good bashing before going ahead. I think I will do the necessary bashing at the end of this message with a verbal walk the plank...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    :) A little clarification before I go on. Jay was concerned that when we traveled for fun we threw out the buddy system. This is not true. The facts are that once you become a divermaster and instructor you are liable for everything. If you go diving with an advanced diver and you are a dive...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    :) OK Guys lets move ahead. Being prepared encompasses a lot of preparation. You need to carry spare equipment, regulators, gauges, and alternate air sources. Flashlights, hoses, straps, dive computers and computer batteries, and mouth pieces. It is easier to swap a regulator on the spot...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    Hey if you guys can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen. I find it rather interesting the same few who want to rank me continue to do it without much real input to the subject. I really wish you guys were on my boat as I would throw you off at the next harbor. HA HA. OK Guys lets move...

    ;) Hi Abby. This is a really good question. Again I insist you wear our equipment if you want to work with us. However, There a lady versions of the BCD that may work for you.

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    :( Hello Diving Gal Thank you for your post. I did what you suggested and checked your profile. I see you are a Dive master… Hum! Like I said, dive masters are wise fools and they should keep their mouths shut. You need to hook up with a good instructor and stay there for a couple of years...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    :) Thanks Abby. Some of you out there seem to think that a high-end expensive scuba course is a rip off. Then why do so many people come again and again? Never NEVER never believe that by being well paid to make other people happy is wrong. To many of us have this problem with making...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    :rolleyes: I think some of you people out there can’t read or only want to hear what you want. I have in no way insulted Abby, If anything I was trying to warn her of a possible problem. Like I said because of the imprinting factor Some Instructors take advantage of the situation with...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    :p This thread is really getting too long and may be loosing its value. I noticed over 1200 have viewed it and that may be it needs to be started again as I have even barely touched the surface of making real money as a scuba instructor…. I have not been getting much more quality input other...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    well abby, I guess I was wrong when I thought you took diving lessons from a bad instructor you now say it was DRIVING LESSONS that were so bad. You also state you trust your instructor who you began dating and have been paying commissions all along the way. WOW! I guess your really...

    To scuba baby and jower. I didn't mean to forget you on my last post scuba baby but I think you would be a great candidate for my scuba re-certify seminar. I am very sorry your first instructor was so bad. This is what I have been talking about. I am glad we didn't loose you to the sport of...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    :) OK! Some Really good remarks and questions. First of all I learned what I am telling you the hard way. I have made every possible mistake you can imagine in this business. The problem is most scuba instructors are really poor businessmen. They operate on an emotion level and not from the...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    :mean: Enough of the kibitzing. It’s time to move ahead. Since there seems to be no real concrete additions to making money as a scuba instructor here goes! This is going to really get me some flack and e mail but here goes. New scuba divers are like baby ducks. They imprint on the...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    Belushi, I think one thing you may be forgetting that most of my customers come to us as their scuba instructors and ask for good advise. They trust our honest advice. I have never had a situation like you describe. Should this happen I would again tell them that their decision in my opinion...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    Belusi, First of all I think the Poseidon is one of the best regulators made. I do not carry it any more nor recommend it to any of my regular customers because parts are very difficult to come by and it requires a very special technician to work on it. This is not a good Idea to purchase...

    Hey Bash, You could not be more than wrong. I love my customers and I have the upmost respect for them. The description in the plan is from a marketing point of view and not from a personal point of view.. I am confused about what your LDS did to you and why they have driven you away. I...

    Make Good Money as a Scuba Instructor

    :confused: I really can't figure out why you don't get the reason for firing an employee who sends a customer to a competetor. DO you really think that if a guy worked in a FORD dealership and he sends a customer to a Chevy Dealership he would keep his job for very long.. DO you think...
