    Diving the Keys in January

    Hi, I'm new to diving, been doing it less than 1 year, I'm still an OW diver with 10 dives. I haven't been since October, and was wondering what the diving's like off the Keys in January? My wife and I both have 3mm wetsuits, will this be enough? What are the currents like? etc..

    DAN Insurance...

    I bought DAN membership and insurance for my wife and I as soon as we passed our OW certification; at less than $10 a month for both of us we thought it was a pretty good deal.

    Diver Killed by Lightning in Deerfield Beach

    Mythbusters did an episode on this very topic, I can't remember the exact results, but you can look it up on the Discovery site. I was diving off Miami Beach doing my OW qualification dives yesterday afternoon :11: Fortunately we were far enough away to avoid most of the storm, but the captain...

    Two new OW divers checking in!

    My wife and I just got OW certified! :D We had a great time - our instructor was excellent, there were only 4 of us in the class so we got to spend a lot of time going over things we weren't too sure on; the first two OW dives were off Key Largo, visibilty was excellent (captain's words - I...

    To those considering an OW class...

    A wise Chinese man once said "We can't offer a Shaolin kung ** program lasting 3 years to Westeners, they don't have the patience for it." He was probably right. :) So in my blinkered opinion... If the course was longer, you'd get a lot less people interesed in diving. It's better from an...
