Looking Sidemount Dives Eastern Ontario

[mddolson]

Greetings,
I' a retired instructor, just turned 64, with 30+ years of diving experience/25 years teaching.
I live in Belleville, Ontario.
I am converting to sidemount configuration, & looking for other sidemount divers in the Peterborough-Belleville-Brockville zone.
I have a DR nomad, aluminum tanks, Mares Mr22 regs & dive Dry, (Viking)
Looking to get out with fellow sidemount divers & get my rig tuned/adjusted properly.

If you find yourself in the Kitchener/Waterloo, Cambridge, Guelph area I'd be happy to give you a hand. We're already working on several new SM divers in a private quarry with great viz.

Thanks for the offer. If I can't find someone in my area I may take you up.
Brockville, is much easier for me as I have family & a place to stay there.

I would contact Dan Humble at Dive Tech Training Centre - Home Page He probably could get you in contact with some local divers.

Reach out to Mike or Jen at Undirworld Diving | Brockville Ontario
Really great guy and always happy to talk your ear off. He's been a side mount convert for years and I've learned quite a bit from him. Same for Jen.
I'll also be down that way for most of June and plan to do some diving. I used to use the same rig and could give you some tip on how to streamline that Nomad.

Thanks, I have contacted Dan, & Mike Fowler who are both in Brockville area.

I'm down in Cornwall a couple times per summer. Always up for a few dives and willing to drive.

Thanks Anglofish & Northernone.
Unfortunately I'm having to defer a month or two. We in the middle of finishing our rec-room.
Just had drywall finished & flooring down, painters due next week.
It may be July before I can get some free time.
