I grew up in Ft.Lauderdale in the 50s & 60s. My father and aunt were both very early FL divers. I began spear fishing until I was old enough (14) to take the SCUBA course. I started with a Healthways double hose and backplate. We really didn't know any better and broke every "rule" posted on scubaboard. My high school friends and I dove every weekend off South Florida with the long weekends down to the Keys. I've done some commercial diving work, but I never wanted to go professional. It was always the most fun you could have and still is at 60. I now wish that we had thought about logging dives. It would be hilarious to read in retrospect.Interact
