Hi all! Most of you know me as Rod Davie's niece

thanks once again to everyone for everything when he passed.
I do have a question...I saw on the news today that there are 3 divers missing in the Red Sea off of Marsa Alam where Rob died...the report went on to say that deaths in the Red Sea were uncommen. Thats not exactly what we were lead to believe by the Cairo Consulet. Does anyone really know about the safety in that area? I'm just curious...thanks!

Forgive my ignorance as I am not a diver

Hi,

The saftey regulations in the Red Sea are simply disgusting!
There is something called the Red Sea Assocciation for Diving & Water Sports who are headed by Karim Helal who own Divers Lodge that has the highest rate of diving fatalities IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!
If I was to start going on about how many things are filthy in that dive center I would sound paranoid! I suppose it is a whole attitude that makes them so uniquly deadly. Their main drive is selling helium, no matter what the cost of life!

Ultimatley, you need to choose where you dive based on your common sense of course and don't be fooled by big signs.
