Thinking back to Captain Mike's presentation last Thursday, "Decades of Diving," at the University Club in New York City. Mike covered his 50+ years of diving experience, including his 10 years with the NYPD SCUBA Team. Those years were focused on safety first and foremost, and filled with sharing expertise, signing on for adventure, and saving our waters. Here are some slides from that talk.
