owner/instructor.   I have to say that after meeting him and talking with
him I more anxious than ever to start my lessons.  He was very ...

   What percentage of air in a scuba tank goes toward the BCD during a
typical dive?  Is it a large and noticeable amount or small?  Under 10%?

Just finished by OW certification. However, I went on a dive with the

Being on bed rest for a month has left me with a little too much time on my
hands.    ;^)    One of the ways I pass the day is to listen to the chatter
