MTRC March Meeting. March 29th

[NeveSSL]

Ya thats what I thought. I did a little checking cause I also wanted to go diving on a reef on my honeymoon. Certification takes 3-4 days depending on how fast you learn it.

I would highly recommend you find a very reputable shop that will take more time than just 3 to 4 days with you. The more time in the pool and in training, the better time you'll have diving. I was fortunate to take the class at MTSU, so I had 15 weeks (for open water... I did more training at MTSU after that) and wouldn't trade it for anything. Chris (fishdoc) also did his certs at MTSU. :) This is something that can very quickly become life and death and you need the skills to protect yourself and your dive buddy. Its well worth investing some time into. :)

I got certified in Nashville and have loved it, I did a shark dive in the Bahamas 2 years ago. No tank, just open water with sharks, it was intense.

What time and where is this meet up? I don't have my tank yet but might learn a bit by coming.
