I am loving my scooter and what it provides for my disabled divers-- but this is more about my adventure!

Yesterday at Payette Lake was a game changer. I headed out there with one goal in mind—underwater searches for bottles and old artifacts that I’ve been hunting for a while.

Normally, I’d be limited by how much ground I could cover manually, but this time, I brought the scooter with me, and it made all the difference.

Once I got down there, I fired up the scooter and immediately felt the freedom. Instead of slowly kicking my way through the water and getting fatigued, I was able to glide effortlessly over the lakebed, focusing entirely on my search. The scooter allowed me to cover a much larger area than I ever could on my own, which was key in a place like Payette Lake where the water can get murky, and the terrain can stretch on for what feels like forever.

This is where I grew up in my diving career. New Jersey waters are known for being unpredictable and can often present difficult diving conditions, including strong currents, low visibility, and cold temperatures. These conditions make wreck diving off the coast of New Jersey more challenging, and divers who regularly dive these wrecks develop excellent technical skills.

For experienced divers looking to push their abilities, these waters are perfect for refining their skills in challenging environments.

So I just relaunched my Dive Journal!!!!

This is a unique tool designed to guide divers on a journey of personal growth, mental wellness, and adventure. More than just a dive log, this journal encourages reflection on how diving impacts one's life—mentally, physically, and emotionally. With spaces for dive details, personal notes, and mementos from each adventure, it’s a way to track not only dives but also the diver's progress in building a deeper connection with the water, themselves, and their community. Exercises interspersed throughout encourage mindfulness, offering opportunities to reflect on growth beyond the technical aspects of diving.
