Dangerous Dave - Surface Support Dangerous Dave, as he is lovingly known, is a great team player when it comes to making sure that we are all safe in the water. Dave takes his role as Surface Support very seriously, which is great for us, as we can just get on and sort the diving out. He tags us up, takes our air, completes all the paperwork, helps with fins, masks and gloves, and best of all, he makes great tea. Nothing is too much trouble for him and we are proud to have him on board as part of the crew. |
Dave (Cool Beans) Pickett - Divemaster in Training Dave has just signed up for his Divemaster programme, having learnt with us right from the beginning as an Open Water Diver. Dave portrays the image of being seriously fit and in shape, but unfortunately failed to impress us with his stamina swim test as part of his Divemaster programme, completing only 2 lengths before collapsing in pain with Sciatica. He has now gained the new title of Sciatica Beans Cool Beans plus points : Funny, willing to help, keen to learn, has a big van! |
