this is the problem i see .everyone wants it( scuba ed) for nothing if you give scuba no value then that what its worth . i still have my original o/w manuel and people oo and aha over it and say so they had books back then lol . my point is to save a few dollars we cheapen the experience. yes save where you can but every student should have there own log book, mask fin snorkel bootie wet suit and yes student books if you get it free its worth nothing just my thought
seriously, you have to tear the KR out, really? You cant make copies why? well obviously you cant because then two people could easily use the same book and they cant sell as many books.
If it is really part of the operating costs then just say so, we will forgive the truth sooner than a silly regulation about tearing out the pages from the books.
But now PADI has confirmed it again, and said that it was against standards. Que pasa?...even though I had PADI confirm some years ago that sharing was ok between families so long as each understood the material and passed the test without help.
