I read a comment that an OW diver was the "most dangerous thing in the sea," and I have some questions.
1. Are OW divers really that bad? Why?
2. What advice do you have for an OW diver so as to avoid being a "danger?"
Obviously, I am an OW diver, however, I am already enrolled in my AOW class and I plan on continuing through the instructor levels.
There are a lot of bad divers out there regardless of certification. There are a lot of real good divers out there regardless of certification.
Regardless of your certification, dive within your experience and comfort.
I was close to 200 dives when I got my AOW, Divemaster, and Rescue.
AOW is a step to getting to some fun classes. Rescue diver is a great course.
Get out there and dive and don't stop learning, you'll be fine.
