First Optima Instructor in Canada

Kostas · 4th December 2006, 20:46

Congratulations to Cornel, AKA SEAFOX, for obtaining his Optima CCR Instructor certification.

In addition, to live by his motto “Never Stop Learning” he also took the coveted CCR Cave diver certification!

I believe Cornel is the first CCR Optima Instructor in Canada.

Look forward to working with you, seafox!

I was lucky enough to be the "student" during Cornell's instructor training and I was greatly impressed by his knowledge and communication skills. Anyone who ends up training with Cornell will get their money's worth and more.
Congratulations Cornell.

FYI: Cornell was certified by Andreas Mattes ( mattmexico) of Pro Tec in Playa del Carmen. He's also a great instructor and runs a great shop.

Thanks for the good wishes guys!
Bob thanks for being my first CCR "student", and a model student you were!

Congratulations to you!
A quick word about Matt and his organisation.
I was very impressed with the level of professionalism and technical expertise available at Protec.
Matt, Scott, Bernadette and all the staff work hard at "customer service" and do so on a consistent basis.
The Mexican caves are amazing and the ocean diving was great with lot's of turtles, gigantic rays, bull sharks on almost every dive.
For rebreather/technical training and great diving, I highly recommend Matt and his crew!
