We'd like to congratulate two Public Safety Divers, on their completion of the PADI Distintive Specialty PSD Advanced Wreck Diver certification. Open only to PSDs, the course consists of a pool session, during which the student follows a weighted line through a small structure. While being entangled 8-10 times by their safety diver, clearing their entanglements, finding a victim, buoying the location, and surfacing safely. While blindfolded......the student always has a safety diver within reach.
The lake session consists of several dives on a submerged structure. In this case, a submerged aircraft, forty feet long, 32 feet depth. The student will don a blacked-out mask, descend to the aircraft, clear the rooftop hatch, tie a line to the exterior. Entering headfirst to clear the cockpit, then the passenger compartment. Once the forty foot cabin is cleared, the student exits the aircraft, and safely ascends to the surface. And then removes their blindfold.
Shaun and George performed flawlessly during this course, and we are very proud of them.
