    Come see us again -- we are now updating our windows above with new ideas   and   LOTS and LOTS   of more entertaining information on our diving activities -- present,   past,   and   future.


    INTRODUCTION

    We are a group of instructors,   DiveMasters   and   divers in Miami joined in a common effort to :

    a...promote high quality underwater education   and   activities with safety as its   PRIMARY   goal.

    b...encourage aquatic activities beneficial to the diving environment.

    c...entice divers of all levels   and   agencies to participate in diving-related activities that improve their skills   and   knowledge as well as enjoyment of the underwater world.

    To accomplish our goals,   we independently teach diving courses of various levels at different places;   i.e. schools,   clubs,   scuba stores   and   marinas to name a few.   Our program develops skills by increasing diver involvement all the way to the instructor level.

    As a closely-knit gang of instructors,   we do   ALL KIND OF DELINQUENCIES   related to our very favorite sport.   If we were musicians,   we would sound even better than   THE BEATLES .   If we were   REAL DELINQUENTS,   we would be rich   and   famous,   probably at the helm of a national political party ..... in   Congress ...... or,   maybe, in the   White House ...... 8-))

    We also plan   and   carry out all different types of dives;   from the simple 1/2 day shallow coral reef dive in the Miami area aboard different local charters   or     SHALLOW WRECKS   down in the Florida Keys,   through specialized   DEEP WRECKS   (for which Miami   and   Ft. Lauderdale are famous)   or   from complex technical deco dives to the more serious multilevel,   multidive,   multiday live-a-board trips to the Bahamas Islands on board several available vessels.   In any vessel,   we charter the entire trip   and   divide the cost amongst all the participants,   keeping the cost under control at a very minimum.   The average trip to the Bahamas   or   our new   "Wreckers Delight"   (See our trip report window)   runs typically between   $150 to $175 pp/day ...... ALL INCLUSIVE,   except taxes   and   hard liquor ...... OR   BAIL!!! 8-))

    As in most of our other dives,   NITROX   or   TRIMIX,   at different percentages of mix,   are our prefered gases for diving.   Although each person decides what they use   and   we cater to air divers,   the safety   offered by   NITROX   or   TRIMIX   and   their extended bottom time make them our most popular gases,   specially during those long exhaustive liveaboard trips.   (See our window on "Why We Dive Nitrox").   To extend our safety in our more serious dives,   we teach   and   practice the techniques of High-Oxygen percentage decompression stops ...... even for our safety stops!!   This helps the elimination of Nitrogen   and   hammers the discipline of Nitrogen   and   Oxygen planning into our "serious" divers.

    As we become more   and   more known in the diving community   and   our contacts reach out into other sites   and   countries,   we have developed good relations with divers   and   operators from other parts of the world.   We now have accomplices running rampant in   Panama,   Puerto Rico,   Colombia,   the Dominican Republic   Argentina,  Venezuela,  Bonaire,   San Andrés   Spain,   Chile   and,   of all places ......   FINLAND !!   These new breed of Accomplices are mainly instructors certified through our program   or   dive leaders who have been diving with us   and   we like their techniques.   With their help,   we can now plan trips to these islands/countries in the Caribbean,   where the water is warm   (well, OK;   not in Argentina   and   definitely,   not in Finland)   and   the piña coladas flow all through the year.  

    STAY TUNED FOR MORE !!




    Have fun in the Internet !!!
