Hi!
I am Bengan J�nsson from Stenungsund, Sweden.
I am not yet a diver but am trying to find out how to. I have been reading 
this list, the rec.scuba newsgroup and a swedish news group to find out 
which is the best way to become a diver.

The general consensus on this list seems to be that PADI and NAU are 
substandard agencies and I should stay clear of them. The onnly on averybody 
seems to think is any good is GUE. I have been looing at their site but 
can't find any info about beginner courses. All courses seems to resuire me 
to have several logged dive before starting. I don't really see how I can 
acomplish this on my own.

The other recomendation I think everybody agrees on is that the agency is 
unimportant and I should get the best instructor. (There seems to be a 
slight contradiction here...) How do I know if the instructor is any good 
since I don't know very much about diving, only what I have picked up from 
the lists.

Please help me make a good choise here.

       Regards

        Bengan
