Hello, everyone!! :teeth:
My name is Ralph, from just north of West Palm Beach, Fl. I have been diving since about 1992, and I am an instructor. I love meeting people, looove making friends, and I love to teach...nothing greater than to see a new diver on their first open water dive!! I try to fit a little bit of work around my dive schedule...hahaha. In addition, I am a Disney fanatic (with annual passes and vacation club membership), love riding my Harley Ultra-Classic, and I am 47 going on a very mature 16! I love to have fun, travel, site-see this awesome country, and stay busy! I hope to be able to get involved and meet some of you fine divers.
Have a great and wonderful time down under.

:teeth: Ralph...glad you stopped by and hope that you will call this home. There are a lot of knowledgeable people here that are ready and willing to help in anyway, all you have to is ask.

Don't forget to take a look at our website at SingleDivers.com. We are constantly upgrading and would love to see you on one of our upcoming trips.

Again, welcome to our little place on the net where having fun is what it is all about.

Hey Ralph! Welcome aboard! I'm sure you'll find a lot of good folks down in your neck o' the woods to go diving with. Maybe even Hog-riding and Disneying, too!

Good to have you here!
