If you want to make the most of your bottom time and enjoy your dives more, try diving with a scooter or a dive propulsion vehicle (DPV). In this program you will learn the concepts and skills you need to plan and conduct dives safely using scooters or DPVs. You will learn the precautions to take when using a DPV, how to maintain contact with your buddy and how to control your equipment to safely enjoy the new dive experiences that these devices will provide. Upon completion of this program, you will earn the SSI Scooter/DPV Diving Specialty certification and be able to dive to 30 meters with a scooter or DPV.
