I would like to know from the experienced guys about the different qualifications you need to be able to call yourself a rescue diver, i have done PADI open water and am wondering if go to Rescue diver will that be enough do be able to actually call myself a rescue diver or will i have to go all the way to Class 4 commercial, the problem is i live in South Africa but i know the dive standards are international so i hope it won't be a problem
Well it depends on what you are looking for. there are several different levels. i have dry suit and auga cert, public saftey diver, moving water, black water, large area seacrh. and i am a rescuediver if you need more info just let me know.
