    Re: SCUBA diving for bass partner needed

    Closed water certification is about $250 plus your mask, fins, snorkle, weights and bouncy control device. This includes all your books and classroom work and the dives in a closed-water pool. Your dive instructor should supply your two regulators, tanks and wetsuit. This certifiies you in a pool. After that, your done with the book work and you the go to a place like the rock quary and spend a day and a half day getting certified for open water at a cost of another $250. At this point your qualified to go almost anywhere at a depth of about 120 feet. It sound like a lot of money, and it is, but once you're certified and make a dive every so often, your good to go forever. I would stongly recommend New Horizons if you're in the Lexington area. I did all my classroom work in a Friday night through Sunday evening weekend. It was pretty intence. You really need to read the workbook before you start No worries though, it's pretty simple reading. They also have classes that are drawn-out over several weeks. Once you start diving you can't believe how cool it is to watch all the fish in their natural state.

    that really does sound awesome.... that would be something fun to do also.... i am thinkin about snorkeling some when the water gets warm enough... i think it would be something fun to learn to do... especially when fish are spawnign u could see just how deep the biguns are...
