The Deep Diver Specialty Course
 
The Deep Diver Specialty Course is designed to give the advanced diver the necessary theory, skills, and experience to safely and comfortably plan and execute dives within the 60 to 130 foot range. The course consists of one evening of academic discussion and four open water training dives. Theory sessions will revolve around the discussion and use of various dive planning tools and software, emergency decompression and advanced decompression sickness theory, specialized equipment and configuration, redundant air sources and their use, air management techniques, and deep diving techniques. Four boat dives will be conducted in the Cape Ann Area (see schedule below for dive locations). These dives will include various skills and exercises to sharpen each student’s diving ability and prepare him or her for the exciting environment of deep ocean diving.
