Hey Scuba Boarders.
I'm Paul AKA Solo Monkey.
Having been a solo diver for a few years now and trained under SDI/TDI in the art form I'd like to know if there are any places you know of that will allow you to do the qualification, but then again don't allow you to use it.
At present I'm getting a load of grief in Europe, having spoken to one operator on lanzarote that offers both Self Reliant and SDI Solo, yet when you message ahead and say "Hey here's my credentials" I'd like to dive solo and they look to you like you have a plague of ebola and state that "Whilst we offer the course, but you aren't supposed to use it in anger"
Admittedly there's that issue of "Well you weren't trained by us", but surely a check dive is good enough for that??
Best regards
Paul AKA Solo Monkey
