    Letter of Complaint for Splash DiveCenter, Alexandria Virginia

    The loss of a student is everyone's worst nightmare. Even after reading the reports in the other thread I'm still not 100% on what happened. All I can tell you is that I experienced a very high level of professionalism from BOTH Janet and David, and I have a lot of respect for them both. I...

    Letter of Complaint for Splash DiveCenter, Alexandria Virginia

However, I was DM certified under Janet and David Hays some years back and I can attest to the fact that the training was...

    Best AI in Cozumel

    A few years ago we had a GREAT experience with the AI at Cozumel Palace. Also the staff there was extremely attentive. I can't think of one bad thing so say about that place!

    Cruise ships and diving options?

    So the wife and I are taking a cruise and one of the ports is Coz. Unfortunately we'll be in port at 10AM, and only staying until 6PM. Does anyone know if there are any options available for diving in that timeframe or are we pretty much hosed? Thanks!

    Lake Rawlings Customer Service

    I agree its a nice place, but I've also witnessed the Kevin problem first hand with some students. Some things aren't worth it if I can just keep driving south and get to the ocean...

    Lake Rawlings Customer Service

    I was planning a trip to Rawlings next weekend but after reading this, I don't think so. BTW, it looks like the whole world can see the issues at Rawlings: Everyone loves Kevin.

    Fairfax dive shops?

    Also, you might want to give Adventure Scuba a try. The staff there is awesome and will go out of their way to help you any way they can. They also carry a wide range of goodies! Definitely my favorite shop! SCUBA, Washington D.C., Northern Virginia, Maryland, SCUBA diving lessons, NAUI...

    Exposure Suits for Cenotes and Cozumel?

    I did the Taj Mahal cenote in July in a 3mm (no gloves or hood) and felt just fine. Of course I have some natural insulation :-)

    Smith Mountain Lake - Underwater town - Fact or Fiction?

    Think I'm going to pursue some entanglement training before attempting this. I expect it to be pretty bad between the fishing line, hooks and trees...

    Smith Mountain Lake - Underwater town - Fact or Fiction?

    Perfect! So according to the Google Earth, USGS Photos, and your topographical info, that puts our town at 37° 2'6.18"N x 79°34'43.60"W in about 100ft of water. Mystery nearly solved, we just have to go down and confirm it! :D

    Smith Mountain Lake - Underwater town - Fact or Fiction?

    Yup! Vista Point is the end of 626. Here is an old USGS image overlayed onto google earth. The town should be just south of the push-pin. If we could get the Garmin map for that area it wold be 100% awesome!
