Michael,

I was not denied coverage, although I do pay a higher rate because I wreck
dive deep.  I think that divers that dive to recreational depths (30' or so)
are not charged additionally, but only the insurance company can tell you
for sure (it might vary company to company).  To be truly covered, you
cannot lie on the application and say that you do not dive because if the
unthinkable happens and you die during a dive, the insurance company will
probably deny the claim.  I did learn that if you stop cave diving or deep
diving, the insurance company can re-write the policy to remove the
additional costs.
