While in the Navy,I was certified in 1973 by a NAUI instructor, (also a Navy diver),and received a Scuba Diver
Card. Not OW,AOW, just SCUBA DIVER
(The course was 3 months, including navigation and rescue. (what we learned, we learned well)
I dove the navy tables back then and logged over 350 dives by 1975, with the max depth of 170'.
I started diving again in 1999, (kids all grown and all) and have since logged 60 dives.
Last week the wife and I did our annual trip to Mexico and I used Studio Blue out of Coz. (great bunch, nice boats).
The owner of the shop told me my card was only good for 60' (by insurance companies) but I went ahead and dove 100.
Is this true that if something happens, my insurance company can hold any benefits due to the fact I only hold a rating of Diver?
