[FONT=&]Group lifeinsurance is not very reliable because you can lose it any time. As arecreational diver, you should be able to getterm life insurance rates that will allow you to dive for an extra but affordable amount every year. Thisreally depends on the agent/ go-between you find. Try looking for multiplequotes on large aggregator websites that host a variety of reputed, well-ratedinsurers; mention diving to an agent online or on the phone because they may beable to find a carrier from their larger gamut that specializes in high riskactivities.

Disclaimer: I work for AccuQuote and this is my personal opinion.
I found a combination of both work for me. Group insurance can be terminated (with your job, no Cobra), but is pretax and not dependent on medical condition or activities. As long as you are employed you are golden. Term insurance ends (every 10 years or so) and when it renews your at the insurance companies whim if they will and they can set any price they want. If you had a medical condition in the mean time, you are screwed. Remember, if you need lots of life insurance, its probably due to kids and they are a 20 year commitment.
