Abe and Jack are continuing to grow as instructors and are expanding into the world of ERDI under the watchful eye of Buck Buchanan.

Today was all about learning how to effectively teach the Full Face Mask course, focusing not only on the skills themselves, but how to develop confident and capable public safety divers.

Tomorrow, they’ll be back at it as they shift their focus to teaching Drysuit 👊

Been at this dive thing a long time .its great to find a hidden gem from time to time. There is a small charter I found in Hernando Beach called Bottom Dwellers ran by a great couple, they really focus on the things that matter . So I’m going to spill the tea about the little things , great seats ,big beefy ladder and great crew helpful but not to helpful( if you know you know) a very fast smooth ride out fast and hour long dives . Guy this is a great operator for your growth as a new diver or a seasoned diver looking for a professional outfit to service your customers I can’t say enough about

It’s been a big week of learning, growth, and a little bit of fun underwater! 🤿

Jack and Abe have been hard at work during their SDI Instructor Development Course (IDC), sharpening their skills and taking the next step in their dive careers. They delivered some incredibly engaging presentations, got a deeper look into progressive teaching techniques, and even managed to sneak in a few fun dives along the way!

We’re so proud of the effort they’ve put in so far, but they’re not done yet. They’re here for another week, and the learning kicks off again bright and early tomorrow morning! ✨

Another great day continuing ERD 1 training with the Citrus County Sheriff's Office Dive Team! 🤿

Instructor candidates Abe and Jack led today’s session, focusing on line tending techniques, search patterns, communications, team cohesion, and responding to underwater emergencies.

We’re honored to have the opportunity to work alongside our local dive team and help support the important work they do for our community ✨

It was an epic day for a sidemount demo! 🤙🤿

Gary spent over 80 minutes in the water trying out a new way to dive, and I think it’s safe to say…he’s hooked!

A huge shoutout to Connie for joining us for a fun day underwater!

A strong start to ERD 1 training with the Citrus County Sheriff's Office Dive Team! 🤿

Today, four team members worked on essential public safety diving skills, including line tending, communication, and search patterns. There was a lot of learning, teamwork, and problem-solving throughout the day.

We’ll be working with the entire team on their ERD 1 certifications throughout the summer, and we’re excited for what’s ahead.

Off to a great start! ✨
