Linda Smith, Trip Leader

            I began diving after getting extreme pressure applied by my daughters and husband.  I completed my Open Water certification in 1988;  Night Diver in 1989;  Underwater Hunter in 1989 all with my youngest daughter;  Enriched Air Diver in 2003. 

            I must admit I have a great love for warm Caribbean waters with 200 feet visibility and no ‘thermo clines’.  I also prefer live-aboard dive vacations where all you have to do is ‘EAT --- SLEEP --- DIVE’.  The big Green Moray ell is my favorite ‘critter’.

My husband, Bobby, and I started our dive careers in 1996 when we began taking groups of divers on escorted dive vacations. Over the years we have had the privilege to do both land based and live-aboard dive vacations.  We have experienced visibility from 300 plus feet to” ZERO” currents from none to the ripping current at the “Cut of Larue” which took us miles from our dive boat.  We visited locations such as Australia, Solomon Islands, Gradual Canal, Russell Islands, Marshal Islands, Florida Islands, Bimini, Belize, Turks & Cacios Islands, and Cozumel.
