Thanks for the advice all. I've looked to find places that offer certification in New York, and all of them only run from May-November.
So the options look like either getting certified in Sydney or flying down to FLA. I'm leaning toward flying down to FLA, and trying to get certified in a lake or something (to protect against bad weather and high seas), and then do a dive in Sydney before diving off the GBR.
dont most GBR liveaboards have instructors on board??? why dont you do the course during your trip??
