Excellent advice Couv, I know I wanted to do it commercially as well for awhile, and when I talked to those who did it, the money was good, while the job lasted..just because you become commercial doesn't mean you're going to be working..zero viz diving, freezing cold, day after day doing "grunt" work..it took the fun out of rec diving, and dont do rec diving it anymore..so if its a hobby you enjoy and a passion..leave it at that and find another career and leave diving as your release, and your way to get away from it all..
