It was a sunny Saturday afternoon and the sea was as calm as it ever gets. All the divers on the boat were looking forward to getting into these nearly-perfect conditions. We had Jake, Scott, Steve, Mendy, Lucas, Brock, Sydney, Jessica, Brook, Peter, Bob, Joanie, amd Blake all on the boat. Some people were doing the first couple days of their certifications, some people were finishing up our brand new 2 DAY OPEN WATER COURSE, and some people were just doing what we do best, which is diving for fun. I personally was getting to work with Jake and Scott, the former of who was getting certified, and we had a great time. The video is us playing rock-paper-scissors on our 3 minute safety stop, which is a game I highly recommend any time you have time to kill under the water. If you have a slate, tic-tac-toe works well. Jake crushed me, btw. RPS world champ? Maybe.
