CAPT. KUJO,
Is there any kind of certification that comes with this class or does is just mean that "you now have new skills to stay alive in cold water?"
The reason I ask is.... I could possibly incorporate this into my work as I work out in and on the water sometimes. A cert. of that nature or one including rescue would come in real handy. We've been looking for something along those lines for quite some time and then it struck me. Duh [img]graemlins/stupid.gif[/img] .... Talk to KUJO! Do you have anything like this?

Thanks,
Ragnar

These sort of classes are invaluable. When you jump in that cold water you really realize just how much of a difference the right gear makes. Also lets you know just how well your gear is not working as well. Better to find out then, as appose to when it is time to really need it.
