Dräger Dolphin or Ray Rebreather Trial Session

Diving with a semi-closed-circuit rebreather is a whole new way of diving. You have the weight of a 12 litre cylinder on your back but the air supply to last equivalent to twin 15 litre tanks. Buoyancy is quite different and so are the emergency procedures we have to follow. As always, when we are given something extra, something is taken away. This course consists of an academic session, a confined water session.

To participate in this course, you need to be a minimum of 15 years old and certified as a PADI Advanced Open Water Diver or an equivalent organization. You also need to be certified to dive with enriched air as gained on the PADI Enriched Air Diver course.

 

 

During this course you will learn:-

bullet

To develop a practical knowledge of diving with the Dolphin or Ray Rebreather.

bullet

To dispel some myths regarding the rebreather.

bullet

To plan, organise and execute dives safely with the rebreather.

bullet

Emergency procedures.

bullet

Care of the rebreather.

This try-a-rebreather course is an excellent way to gain hands on experience without committing to a full course. The course starts in the classroom doing the academics that you would normally do on the full course. You then use the rebreather in a swimming pool covering exactly the same skills as the full course.

If after doing this experience session you decide to go on and do the full course, what you have done so far, including the cost, will be credited towards the full course in your chosen rebreather.

Stop by the dive centre for more information on these and other courses available today.
