Open Water

[psdiver]

My first dive experience ever was in Puerto Vallerta.  Not certified, we took a resort course and then went on a two tank dive.  On the second dive they sent me down first, no divemaster, by myself and I waited on the bottom at about 60' for the rest of the group for a few minutes.  I'm not sure why they did this since we had only four divers and two divemasters.  At the time I was totally confident but looking back that was not good leadership on their part.  This was after a suface interval where they put us (my wife and I and one other couple) on a small island and left for an hour or more!
