Gary

Gary started his adult life serving in the Military and is now a Veteran. His love of the ocean brought him to scuba diving and has been a certified diver for nearly 30 years. He has a vast experience in scuba diving by dropping on dive sites all over the United States to include west coast deep water lakes, FL fresh water springs, Gulf of Mexico, and the list continues. He performs “Divemaster” duties onboard but to call him a Divemaster is an understatement!  He is an experienced PADI certified Instructor as well as a specially trained instructor in Adaptive Diving working with physically handicapped veterans and people with special needs. If that wasn’t enough he is also a PADI certified Emergency Response & CPR Instructor. His personality, knowledge, and attitude towards safety will make your experience one of the safest and most fun you can have on a dive boat!

Gary is also Founder and President of Bright Horizons Diving, Inc., a non-profit corporation for special needs individuals and is one of a handful of people in the entire world to hold a PADI adaptive dive techniques specialty. Specifically designed to introduce the underwater world and change the lives of people who want to take the plunge. Gary has family members with special needs and that makes this program especially important to him. He has seen first-hand how it can provide new found confidence and courage for those who participate.
