Memorable Diving Moment : Ronaldo. Open Water Course. He had been in an accident in a flooded car, so teaching him how to cope with a flooded mask was very challenging, and some long hours in the pool. I remember the utter joy for him (and his wife Rina who was re-certifying for him) and he completed a mask removal and replacement without fear and with complete ability on that certifying dive. I was so proud of him I could burst.
