During
your PADI Wreck Diver program you'll go on four open water dives,
which may be conducted over at least two days. This is where you'll
put in to practice the infomation you gained from listening to your
instructor and from the PADI Wreck Diving Manaual and video. Infomation
contained in your program includes:
- The planning,
organization, procedures, techniques, problems and hazards of
wreck diving.
- The preparation
and use of lights, air supplies, special equipment, penetration
lines and reels.
- Limited-visibility
diving techniques and emergency procedures.
The elective
wreck dive conducted during the program may count toward this specialty
at the discretion of the instructor.
