Earlier this year I posted a message asking for some dive gear items for my friend Ramon Statie who is addicted to diving but has no financial means to buy or rent his own gear. Captain Don and Janet already arranged a BCD, Regulator and snorkel set for him. Thanks to various BT Angels he now also has a perfectly fitting wetsuit, the reg has an octo on it and his set was completed with clips and ties and last but not least a brand spanking new dive computer. Thanks to those who contributed!!!

Bas, I have tears, what joy I'm so glad it all fit and worked out for him, and YOU are the ANGEL for taking him under your wing, teaching him SCUBA, and gathering the equipment together.

Bas, have you taken him on the Angel City to Hooker dive yet? That's one neat dive!

Hi Smack. Ramon is only open water certified right now. We might do the advanced course together after which that dive is most certainly a go!!
