Seeking advice from Victorian divers - I'll be relocating to Bendigo next year with my partner, a long way from open water unfortunately. We'll be leaving behind our local dive store, club and group of buddies as part of the move and are looking around for a new shop to service our gear (mostly Oceanic/Hollis gear), and a new club to help us find our way exploring dive sites around Victoria's southern coast.
I welcome all feedback everyone can provide (certainly private message me if you'd rather keep your opinions discreet) - it would be great to hear from some other landlocked divers that have had experience dealing with stores or participating with a club 'remotely'.
A quick look online suggests Geelong Dive Centre might be the closest large dive shop to Bendigo - any tips or tricks dealing with these guys?
Thanks all in advance.
