Doing our part to help the environment through...
Every weekend we run a scuba diving charter on our boat, Got Air, in the beautiful 1000 Islands. This weekend was no different, except that on Sunday morning, as we headed out to dive the Lillie Parsons shipwreck in the Brockville narrows, we encountered a large surprise floating in the middle of the St Lawrence River: a full size, rusty hot water tank that someone had carelessly and improperly...

Great document from DAN on ear care for scuba... →
So many people we meet in courses, on our boat charter and just scuba diving in general seem to have ear problems. Often these problems as merely a nuisance, but sometimes they can be the reason people stop taking pleasure in scuba diving.
