    Leaving for Utila this weekend

    Alright, well I made it in last night. The ride with Vern took alot longer because of some other customers who wanted a ride to their private Cay. Other than a little rain the ride was nice, some of the other people got sea sick though. When we finally got to Utila, a few of the instructors from...

    DAN courses

    I have been searching the forums and haven't come up with anything about the DAN courses, it's kind of hard because a search for DAN comes up with nothing. Are the DAN courses useful/informative or are they just a way for DAN to make money? Also are some certs. better than others? Thanks

    Blueseason, that sounds pretty cool, but the price is a little out of my range I've been in contact with Ash McKnight at Cayman diving college (He was working at the shop where I got certified) and that program looks like a pretty good deal, anyone taken the course with them?

I have been in contact with the...
