    Why not in my state?

    I was going to sign up for Dive Assure but found out that it does not operate in West Virginia. So why can't I get Dive Assure in my state?

    Good question, but from the looks of the company's participation here - you may not get an answer.

    I noticed that New York is excluded which was not too surprising as that state has the most challenging requirements for an insurance company, and I saw that North Dakota was as well which might be a case of "not enough to bother," but West VA?

    Dive insurance is essential and it's good that DAN sells everywhere. If you want trip or gear insurance, DAN may not be the best but there are many alternatives.
    You can test the tanks you breathe or - dive on hope.
    Testing is safer...


    Great news for vacation divers who cannot talk themselves into buying a personal CO tank tester!

    >> Rent one for a week or longer here <<
    Now let's see more CO readings in your trip reports, ok...??

    Okay, so I just got an e-mail from Roy Pargament of Dive Assure. He tells me that Dive Assure is finalizing the process of being able to offer insurance in West Virginia. He promised to contact me when it is available.
