Pat, I'm very interested in attending the rebreather workshop since I will be at Sea Rovers this year. However, I'd like to hear from some of those guys who attended Tek '95 and get their opinion on the workshop: 1) is it worth the money? (I assume it is since Bill Hamilton is the instructor, but a confirmation would be great) 2) Will Sea Rovers offer more than one session (say one Saturday, one Sunday) like they did at Tek '95 if it fills quickly? I understand that they actually offered 3 sessions at Tek due to the interest of the attendees. 3) Is it the same course offered at Tek '95 or a "watered down" version? I'd appreciate any more info you could offer. Thanks in advance, John John Lydon jlydon@re*.mg*.ha*.ed*
