Welcome Dive Buddies!

I started this list as a precurser to a website that I am building for a "Dive Buddy" Locator/Tracker system. My goal is to have a place where you can come and maintain a list of your dive buddies, as well as posting to a select group, or on the public board to locate a buddy. Other options may include setting up dive trips, locating gear, classes, diving locations, links, etc.

Have fun with it and check back often as this is an ongoing project of mine. Email me updates if an online solution hasn't been provided for self-updates.
