Safety
At Pacific Divers we have developed and formalized
our operations and safety proceedures to ensure our customers
receive a standardized and safe excursion every time they go out
diving with us.
We always maintain operational standards in line
with those in New Zealand and Australia. This cannot be said of
all Cook Islands dive operators, in fact we are confident in saying
that we offer the highest level of service, safety and dive quality
in the Cook Islands.
All dives have a dive professional, divemaster or
instructor, in the water guiding the dives. Every excursion has
an additional team member on the boat as a boat operator and surface
safety person. This is not always the case in the Cook
Islands.
We carry a first aid kit and oxygen kit on board.
We are also members of the Divers Alert Network, keeping ourselves
informed of any developments in how to dive safely.
Additional safety gear that we carry as standard
includes:
VHF Radio
Cell Phone
Float line for divers
Long anchor warp
Emergency floatation
We
also have personal dive computers supplied to all buddy teams.
This might seem unnecessary but experience has taught us that
not all divers monitor their profiles or stick to the recommendations
of the divemaster. Individual computers allow all divers to be
aware of their own no-deco limits and thus ultimately providing
the maximum safety and security for all divers.
