Hello from Massachusetts

DrDiverDave · 22nd August 2006, 22:16

Hi all,

Dave Sutton suggested that I join this group. I am very impressed with the posts and replies that I have seen. I am currently trained in the Azimuth (SCR) but do not own one. I use the training model at the dive shop where I teach.

I am looking for a used CCR at a good price, with a preference for the KISS classic or sport, and a VR3. I have training available, and hope to have a CCR this year. I am interested your thoughts on this, and if any of you know of units for sale at a good price. I eventually hope to teach CCR.

I am also interested in scrubber efficiency and design and plan to post on these in the future.

Dave

Hey Dave, I'm not very far away from you. I live in Dracut and depending on where in N Andover you are, we may be real close. So? What shop do you teach with. I'm on a MEG and also have a cert and have dove the Buddy.
Welcome

Welcome Dave. I just completed my Mod 1 training for my Evo with Tom Huff up at NE Scuba (Chelmsford). I know he does KISS training as well. best of luck and maybe I'll see you around some time. I usually frequent Cape Ann Charters (Fran Marcoux's boat).

Hi Paul,

I have been teaching at Narragansett Pier Dive shop in RI, but am now teaching from my home. I'm working on affiliations with local dive shops and like Aquatic Escapes in particular. I am a TDI / SDI instructor, but started with NAUI.

I would like to get together and talk sometime since we are so close. I would like to know more about the MEG. Email me at: dchemist@excite.com.

Thanks,

David
