Course Objectives: Dive deeper,
dive smarter,
and see the greatest shipwrecks while
others only read about them in books. Be
safer on all future dives with a better
understanding of all technical aspects
of diving and obtain refined in-water
skills. Diving in the Great Lakes beyond
130’ is no place to “wing it.” Do it
right, do it when you are ready, and do
it with the professional teaching staff
of Huron Scuba.
After successful completion of the DSAT
Tec Deep Diver course you'll be able to
conduct gas-switch extended
no-decompression dives, decompression
dives and accelerated decompression
dives using air and enriched air to a
depth of 165 feet. You'll also
understand the hazards and risks
involved in technical diving, as well as
how to prepare for and handle reasonable
foreseeable technical diving
emergencies.
Classroom, Lab
and Confined Water:
- Course includes approximately 16
hours of presentations, dive
planning and work on equipment
assembly and configuration, both in

diving divided among the Ohio
quarries and Alpena/Rogers City
charters.

diving log will look like (PDF).
