Diver Propulsion Vehicle Speciality Course information
Ever wanted to complete that ‘Mission Impossible’?
Have you ever come up after a dive wishing you had longer as the dive site was just too large to cover during one dive?
Why not try using an underwater scooter or DPV – Diver Propulsion Vehicle.
A DPV will allow you to cover a lot more territory in a short space of time. It will motor you through the water allowing you to buzz around a large ship wreck, or glide over a coral reef and is a great way to see more, whilst having lots of fun.
Not to mention making you feel like a secret agent!
The DPV Specialty course combines well with the Enriched Air Nitrox specialty.
