Hi

My name is Neil and I am new to the forum. Could anyone recommend a tech diving instructor for an Advanced Nitrox / Deco (or equivalent) course. I live in the Ottawa area and would like to pursue training in the general area, i.e. Ottawa or Brockville / Rockport area.

I have been diving for a year and a half and have done about 250 dives, mostly local, some florida cave dives, and I am trained up to the Cave Apprentice level.

Thank you in advance for any recommendations. I could just pick a place at random but I don't want to learn a bunch of stuff that's just going to get me killed.

Neil

Neil, we will be running some info sessions about our tech courses. Should have that scheduled in the next week or so at most. I will let you know when they are happening.

Of your choices around here I see three good options:

- Dan, but you have to jump though all the GUE hoops
- Steve, but you have to leave a message every day for a year to get a return call
- Marc+Bill, but they aren't quite ready to roll yet

Looks like they are almost ready to go. NAUI has a great course, and both of these guys know there stuff.

And yours truly is the designated video guy for the tech courses :twisted: For the right price, I can do some editing - but you can't afford that price

I can barely afford a $750 used Tekna. At you're rates I could buy a 3-4 second clip.

Another tech instructor in the Ottawa area is Norm Hughes.
