Hi, does anyone know where i can find an aluminum backplate on island? Thanks!

I think Walt Stark at Rek Tek is a Dive Rite dealer.

Yup, I would try Walt: http://www.rectekscuba.com/index.html
He is located at Capt. Don's.

Thank you guys. Emailed them.

Received the answer yesterday. The AL Plate cost $123!
Thank you again!

Glad to help. I do not know another person on the planet with more tech experience then Walt, and he is a hell-of-a-nice-guy to boot. I highly recommend his solo dive course as well.

And for the BT bed bugs, no I do not get a commission.

Patrick, do you know how long is this solo dive course? I got interested!

**Edit** I got the info in his website.

Is it worthy?

Bed bugs ?

Guillherme - I think the solo diver course is very helpful to provide a framework for understanding safety if you plan to dive alone. I know there are some folks who say "well I only dive shallow when I dive alone, so I don't need a class" but the class, at the very least, explains the possibilities to you so you can prepare to within your level of comfort and risk.

My husband took the course in Bonaire last year (but not with Walt). It was a one day course, involving both theory and diving.

It made me much more confident in his solo diving endeavors, because I know he at least knows the risk/rewards of diving alone and knows how to maximize his safety.

Hope this helps.

where did he took the course? Thanks

Guillherme - I sent you a PM with the info.

Thank you!
