| Z Man Wyo - Douglas, WY USA About Me: We live in the GREAT State of Wyoming - I’m retired military (started in the Navy finished with Army). Learned to dive while in the US Navy stationed in San Diego, CA through a local dive shop, San Diego Divers No. 1 (instructor Jack Beasley) have been diving since 1975. After running marathons for a number of years my wife and I started diving together. Both of us are divers who enjoy warmer water diving (Hawaii/South Pacific and Caribbean) and are trying to fill our passports before they expire. My wife is an Advanced nitrox Diver and I´m a Master nitrox Diver and now working toward Dive Master then to Instructor. | |

Favorite Dive Gear | Anything that makes diving safer, my AquaLung Legend regulator, my AquaLung BCD, my AquaLung SlingShot fins, my Wisdom 3 dive computer and my SeaLife camera |

LOL

 | I stayed at Sueno Del Mar, a very nice small resort, 8 rooms, with the dive shop and dock right there in the front of the property. Ray Lopez is the person to talk either for diving or lodging. I really liked the diving on Roatan. I too plan to return sometime this year.
|
 | Isn´t Roatan just great. Where did you stay and dive with?

 | Your military career and life is an almost mirror image of mine. I started in the USMC and finished in the Army. Medically retired July 1993. As with you, both my wife and I are divers. Only exception she is a certified ´´Cave Diver´´ and I am a big open water cave diver. My diving experance is with the US Army Special Forces (5th Group) as well as PADI certified.
