For those looking to join a dive club in central Virginia, there are currently two options.
The Richmond Dive Club meets on the second Tuesday of each month. They have great guest speakers and lots of other member perks. Richmond Dive Club - Home
Just south of Richmond is Tri-City SCUBA &...
For what it's worth, I have been using Quickbooks POS for many years. I started using it for other retail businesses and then kept using it in our dive shop. It has some limitations and is not specifically geared towards the dive industry but it is a solid platform. That said, I came across...
I teach open water for PADI, NAUI and SDI. I personally think that all students should have a basic understanding of what is going on with on gassing and the time it takes to off gas. Tables give them a real visual for that. If PADI should get rid of anything it's the Wheel. I hate that...
Great videos... I checked out the "Diving from small boat" video too. Quality is good enough to make me want to use them when training students. Especially the Rawlings one since that's in my neck of the woods.
The Chester Dive Club was started in 2002 after returning from a dive trip with the Dallas Weston Dive Center. Since then the club has had an average of about 20 - 30 active members which all enjoy the low key laid back atmosphere of the club. The club meets the third Wednesday of each month...
Well, myself and two buddies dove the Rappahannock last weekend. On Sat the water was pretty choppy and vis was pretty poor. Did not get in as many dives as we were hoping too but I did learn a thing or too. The "Reefs" in the Chesapeake (according to Google Earth) are just fishing reefs that...
as for sites.. if you check out google earth and turn on "Dive Sites" you will see a few withing a few miles of my place (Rt. 3 bridge on Rap.). Other than that I have charts and maps that will help determine drop offs and potential ledges. Using the sonar and underwater video system we should...
well, this weekend is the charity auction... hope to see you guys there.... next weekend is a cub scout camping trip.. after that... either may 1st or 2nd. I want to try it with 4 psople max.. me and 3 other divers. You in?
I am looking for anyone who has done any diving in the lower Rappahannock / Bay area. I have done a ton of river diving even in the Rappahannock (Fredericksburg area) but have not been in around the mouth of the bay yet. I have a place at Grey's Point, nice boat and all the toys needed to jump...
Stairman,
I agree 100%. Many divers right out of the gate are just not ready to hit the water running. Now this does have a lot to do with their instruction and instructor. I am a PADI, NAUI, SDI and TDI instructor. I have to say one thing I love about NAUI is that we have a rescue senerio...
Mark, thanks for the plug... To further elaborate on Tri-City SCUBA, we are located 36.75 mile north of Lake Rawlings, and 1/4 mile off of I-95 (temple avenue exit) making us the closes dive center to the Lake as well as the most conveinent dive shop to the interstate.
While our main focus...
