It seems to be a pipe dream held by quite a few to turn “pro” and to be “in the industry”.

Well, I’ll let you into a secret.

90% of dive instructors, commercial divers, whatever, spend 90% of their time in the front of a white van fannying around. With two of you, then you get to argue over the radio station.

A Bovi Sat course consists of 3 hours at 300m and 8 weeks in the middle seat of a transit fiddling with the ash tray while the instructor leans out of the window talking sh1te to his mate.

Likewise, PADI won’t sign you off till your lower lumbar region snaps from crouching and keeping your knees away from the gear stick.

You still want in?
