Recently I successfully completed my PADI Underwater Navigator Specialty Instructor course in Owhiro Bay, Wellington, New Zealand. Today I received my certification from PADI.
This allows me to conduct the PADI Underwater Navigator Specialty course, in which divers learn about navigation patterns, natural and compass navigation, how to mark or relocate a submerged object from the surface, underwater mapping, how to follow irregular courses with the Nav-Finder, dive site relocation, how to estimate distance underwater, and lots more useful stuff. They also gain experience by practising navigation and related skills under instructor supervision both on land and during the three training dives.
My PADI Course Director was Tony Howell of the New Zealand Sea Adventures dive center, Wellington, New Zealand.
