About 3 weeks ago, my Son and I signed up for the NAUI Nitrox and AOW classes with the LDS that we did out OW with. My Son is 13 years old, 14 this January 2007.
We paid the $150'ish each for the Nitrox Class. We took the class, my Son scored 94% on the written test. We did the tank checks for the O2 percentage at the fill station, completed the log books, etc., dove 4 tanks each of 32% and 36% Nitrox, in the ocean, averaging 75fsw, including two night dives.
I just stopped by my LDS and they gave me my Nitrox card, but NAUI refused to issue my Son a card because he's too young, according to the LDS he needs to be 15 years old.
I think this is pretty sucky.
