OCEAN DIVER

 
     
 

Ocean Diver (formerly Club Diver) is the entry level grade for all new divers joining the BS-AC.  Once qualified to this level the member is certified  to dive within certain limits.

The trainee must be a member of both the BS-AC and Peterborough Sub-Aqua Club for insurance purposes.  There is a one-off "Training Levy" for new members at this level.  The levy enables us to maintain the training equipment and purchase new items as required.

 
Dive Limits:
bulletMax Depth: 18M
bulletBuddy: Sports Diver minimum
 
 The training for this grade is a set course of:
bullet7 Classroom lessons
bullet5 Sheltered water dives
bullet5 Open water dives
bulletTheory Test

The student will also participate in additional specified dives such as low visibility, drift, small boat and large boat dives to become more familiar with the techniques they are learning.

 Equipment:

All trainees are expected to acquire their own

bulletFace Mask
bulletSnorkel
bulletFins

Other equipment can be provided by the club until the course is completed.
 

It is possible that trainee Ocean Divers may have the opportunity to accompany one of our Instructors and other members of the club to Gozo/Malta for a Training Event in beautiful clear blue water.
