Suggestions for UK instructors for MOD 2 courses please!

UKSteve · 12th April 2007, 08:55

My vote is for either Richie Stevenson (did MOD 1 with him) or Dave Cooper (did MOD 2/3 with him cos Richie was fully booked) .... depends on how thick her skin is!!

Only reason for these are they both tolerated me... I'm sure others might be as good bot no exposure to them

I know personally that Dave Thompson (aka "dave t" on RBW) is an excellent instructor.

He usually teaches in UK and warm-er water locations.

Highly recommended!

I'll put in a vote for Dave too (and Phi of course

)

Thanks for the suggestions so far. Mr. Stevenson is apparently unavailable for the dates required, but thanks.

Other suggestions please?

Dont know about availablility, but Martin Robson from Eau2 Technical diver training, cave diver training, trimix and rebreather courses in UK, Europe and World-wide does an excellent mod 2 course

GF has been badly let down by her (potential) instructor and needs a MOD 2 course asap.

Any suggestions for good instructors? Could be world-wide (she'll travel), but UK or Europe for preference.

Many thanks!

You know coops aka decodiver will chew you up and spit you out - which is what you want for trimix :-) - thats a good thing by the way - te hehehe

Yes, I can personally recommend Al Wright in Poole as a great instructor. Very flexible, accomodating, willing to travel, all round top dog!

And no, he's no relation and neither do I work for him.

Dennis Vessey (Diver Den) or ANdy Mumford (AndyMumford) both on this forum.

Dennis is based in Lincolnshire but uses stoney / NDAC for training as does ANdy who is based in surrey.

I'm doing my mod2 with them at the moment.

Good luck,
Pete
