Diver Propulsion Vehicle SpecialtyEver watch James Bond in the movies Thunderball, flying along on his underwater "scooter"? How about watching Jacques Cousteau's crew skimming along just above the reef? Ever wonder if you could do that? Well, Underwater Phantaseas can make it happen. And it's just as fun as it looks (and easy)!
We are training a few divers to become Diver Propulsion Vehicle
Pilots (DPVs, also know as scooters). A couple of hours in the
class room will be spent learning how to set up, safely operate,
and maintain the DPV, and then an hour with one in the pool,
learning the basics. Once you're ready, you'll do a dive in the
Aurora Reservoir, "flying" through the water with an
Underwater Phantaseas instructor, then "solo" on a
second dive. You'll find out just how quickly you can get to
and from dive sites, and how tired your legs WON'T be when you
do. Once you've completed the course, you'll be certified and
able to rent scooters on your own.
