[Seattle Times] "What you need to know to start scuba diving in the Seattle area"

Post by carlk3 »

From last week's Seattle Times:
https://www.seattletimes.com/life/outdo ... ttle-area/

"Though most of us living around Puget Sound are landlubbers, the underwater kingdom is closer than it seems, waiting to be discovered.

There is a vibrant scuba diving community in Seattle, and while it might seem like an intimidating hobby — it goes without saying that diving is not an activity to be taken lightly — you can learn how to dive in the Seattle area without jumping in head first. ..."

Why is it that they don't come and find the true salty divers of this region ?
If you're going to do a write-up then find the divers in the area that have been diving here for over 30 years

These anger you? What does it matter who they write about? The important thing is that they are writing about diving, and the groups that are diving. I was honored to have the write up, and with any luck people just out of cert class, will find us and join in our dives.

I will always be the first to throw these at new divers
