Hello Mandie and welcome aboard! We understand you are keen to sharpen your skills, and the best way to do this is to take advantage of our club's unique Rent-a-Buddy program! It should more aptly be named the Rent a Mentor Program, but the original name has stuck. *grins* This program has merit on several points, just a few include:

 - The option to relax and enjoy a dive with the confidence of being paired with a Divemaster or higher certification buddy (usually club founder Kamala aka WreckWench herself)
 - Honing fundamentals through real time post dive feedback, with future dives to reinforce those insights in mere hours rather than weeks or months
 - Getting what amounts to a professional refresher dive course among the amazing WARM WATER reefs that the club visits year round! Why practice in a bulky 7mil wetsuit when you will use those skills diving in a light shorty or just swimsuit, depending on your tolerance for 78-82 degree water whether on budget minded Caribbean destinations, or true Bucket List trips such as the Red Sea, Maldives, Indonesia etc. which the club offers.

 

Again, welcome and know we are always just a topic reply or an email message away to answer any questions. Let's go diving!

Hi Mandie and Welcome to SingleDivers.com!!

  Mandie and    to the awesome world of Singledivers.com.  Kamala and crew put on lots of great trips with all skill levels of divers.  What we all have in common is the scuba bug!!  Have to warn you - it is contageous   .  The Rent-a-Buddy program is a great way to hone in your skills.   Hope you find a trip that matches your needs and get in the water soon!!

Welcome! You will love it. I did the mentor in Roatan and it was so great. About to leave on my 2nd trip to Bonaire.
