SCUBA REVIEW: Today I had to actually teach a scuba review class to 2 medical students from Europe. This is a program to review the various skills of diving with people that haven't been diving in a while. Its very similar to just teaching a class but hopefully everything goes faster because the students should already know how to do most things.

The class went pretty well though I did make a couple of mistakes. I was suppose to have them so some of the skills for 30 seconds and I didn't but it was not a really big deal. They did well anyway. These guys were very good natured and we had a great time. We took a short break after the class and then did a fun dive. Once again, I didn't get lost. I was worried but I was able to get them right back to the boat.

I also did another dive on the wreck and prepared a rough map of it. It was just one of the exercises they teach in that class. Its really pretty hard to do because you are only at the bottom of the boat for about 10 minutes and you work your way up around it for another 10 minutes or less. The boat is about 100 feet deep so this is why the bottom time is so short. You'd have to dive the site many times to get an accurate map. It was fun anyway however. I think we'll dive it using NITROX (32% O2) sometime later this week and you get another 5 minutes of so of time because you don't have the nitrogen build up of normal air.
