Second the recommendation for Chris Sawyer. They now have boats going out of Caneel Bay roght on St John as well as Red Hook. Their shop/dock at Red Hook is just a short walk from the ferry dock at Red Hook to coming over from St John if you need to isn't a big deal. I've always been OK...

Lots of great movies posted. As far as comedy goes, my hands down favorite is Clerks.

Interesting they let you go on the dive but limited your depth. Down the coast in Sharm I have experienced dive operators that will not let you on certain dives until they have checked you out (or you've been diving with them before). Cert level and number of dives don't seem to matter -...

That's a lomg way from the bar - bummer!

I haven't been diving with St.Thomas Diving Club but I have been diving several times with Chris Sawyer out of Red Hook which is about 10 minutes from Bolongo Bay. The Diving should be great when you go as it is most of the year. Cheers!

Sorry to hear about your experience although I must admit I'm not surprised. Coki is the standard cruise ship cattle dump and far from the best the island has to offer. There are some excellent, professional operators on the island and outstanding dive spots. The more time I spend on the...

Having been diving around St. Thomas on many visits to the in-laws, I agree with either of these choices. Call ahead to make sure your schedule works. If Coki is your only option - skip it. Cheers! Dunk

Now that's downright tacky....

If you didn't have so many post, I'd swear you were a troll. You can't be serious....

Submitting any bid if there is more that maybe 5 or 10 seconds left is a waste of time.

I'll second that! Carvel Rock can get some serious currents. I've been diving a lot of places and actually think highly of the diving around St Thomas. There are some really great dives including Carvel Rock and others near the surrounding Cays. Steve

OK - I got the book and DVDs a couple of weeks ago because I wanted to get a better understanding of DIR. I thought the book was poorly edited. It had some good information but it was extremely redundant (good in diving - not in writing). The introductory section was a decent overview but the...

I have an older Citizen Hyper Aqualand - it's been great. I've looked at some of the newer ones but this one does everything I need it to. Steve

Oh... you just HAD to bring punctuation into it - didn't ya!

While I believe that possesing the ability to communicate using proper grammer and spelling are important, when it comes to boards such as this I just don't care . Steve

I had occasional problem when I first started diving as well. Tell her to just take the decent real slow and clear constantly as she decends. I would occasionally stop my decent part way down and hover for a couple of minutes - seemed to work. If shes having trouble clearing she should not...

OK - I think I've got an answer to my original question. Thanks to all for the input. I'll leave the rest of the thread to the attorneys to argue the minutiae. Cheers! Steve

While I don't dispute your legal research, there are a couple of cases here where DMs have ended up in court just by being in the proximity of an accident. Ultimately, I don't believe they were found to have any liability, but running the risk of being dragged into a courtroom just for being a...
