Hi I am a new Diver who would like to earn some experience in the water. Dive Anytime

[scubadude223]

Myself I have to rent a tank and the weights, I do it throught Dive and Sea Sports in New Westminster. But really any dive store I think is good. Let me know where you are located about.

i am in the Richmond/ Ladner Area. what is the cost to rent that stuff? do you have a link to the dive shops website?

 

[scubadude223]

Mike, I noticed you have only a few dives and I was wondering if there was anyone else who had a few more dives that would be willing to dive with me. After doing a few more dives in the water, I would like to dive with you Mike. I believe that I am very able in the water but I just have 5 dives outside my Open Water, and I want to start out cautious. I don’t want to be a burden to anyone, but for myself I would like to do it safely. I have a ride if anyone needs one. Anyways I hope someone can help me out.

sure no problem, i am fairly competent in the water as well, but being new, and having all new gear i'm mainly looking to go out for a couple 'test' dives, mainly to get familiar with new equipment, boyancy etc. wouldent mind going for a tour as well. if anyone is interested let me know.

Lets try to put something together for Porteau cove on Saturday

Saturday or Sunday will work for me. If we get a group of 4, we can team up the newer divers with someone they feel more comfortable with.

If you guys wanted to go on sunday that would work for me and that group of 4 sounds like a good idea. Let me know whats up

Sunday works for me, just arranged to go skiing Saturday. Does anyone know what the tides are for Sunday?

Sounds like we have two newish divers and two more experienced. We could do the shallow wrecks. I am thinking 2 dives maybe 10:00 or so.

sounds good to me, if you dont mind me tagging along, just need to know a place to rent some tanks/lead and i'm ready to go

Feel free to PM me.

I just posted and realized I was beaten to it! (I think I like your graph version better) Looks like high tide will be just before noon on sunday, low tide is 7:30 pm.
