Ding!
I am excited (and exhausted) to announce that I am now a SCUBA instructor under the SDI/TDI flag!
My gratitude for Chris Verstappen and Astrid Verstappen de Jager of Technical Diving Services of Bonaire is unbounded.
Anyone who knows me, knows that when I get into something - I really get into it:
Three months of full time training with Chris deeply fleshed out my whole family's skill set underwater. Trained in the tech tree to handle deep water, advanced oxygen blends, tank inspection, sidemount, decompression procedures, and now I can train other folks to be explorers of this under water world!
Follow-up post to come introducing private sailing and diving charter vacations for only 1 party at a time in 1 or 2 cabins for up to 4 adults and children.
Huge credit to Kyle Bethke and Max Bethke who trained with me much of these three months. Thank you very much Kaiwen Bethke for your support!
Cheers!
