Diver Propulsion Vehicle (DPV) Course

DPV’s often referred to as Underwater scooters offer a thrilling way to see a lot of underwater territory in a brief amount of time. They scoot you through the water without kicking. Want to visit that offshore reef from the beach? A DPV may be the way to go.

For many years Cave divers have used DPV's for the easiest and quickest way to penetrate vast underwater networks. Many ship wreck divers and explorers use them also.
