Chris,

Had it out last Sunday. I've been diving a Tech since '95, so it's not really a change, except it's new! My Tech has around 750 dives on it and is getting a little long in the tooth. I've relegated it to a backup position for work dives and single tanks. Thanks again for the terrific deal Chris.

Al.

Hadn't checked into Scubaboard for a while. I see the thread was revived. Good. I really would like to get into some diving now in Nova Scotia. i joined the yahoo group today. Now I just need a tank so if anyone knows where I can get an inexpensive used one that would be super.

I'll check out Torpedo rays too.

I dive with a wetsuit so with the warmer weather I should be able to handle the exit from the dives.

The only shop in the Halifax area that I've received instruction from is Torpedo Rays, they're in Dartmouth, the website is www.torpedorays.com. I was very happy with the training they gave me.

I don't know if Divequest is still offering courses or not, they had some funny hours on the go.... www.divequest.ca.

Another shop you may consider is Diver's World, they're out near Bayer's Lake, the number is in the book, they have a web site, but I can't remember what it is... Diver's World .com or .ca...... somthing like that.

I know Torpedo's has an anniversary sale going on until the end of the month..... I don't know if that extends to courses as well. I can't speak for the other two, but as I said, Torpedo Rays was a good place to take training from.

Hope this helps....
