Let's do some math...Just using PADI, that's 15 hours per day (MOre than truckers are allowed by law and just an hour short of commercial airline pilots) that allows for 9 hours sleep, meals and commute, ...Must have some "dead" tired students at the end of such a grueling session. I am soo lucky my advanced cost me a total of 26 hours INCLUDING the drive to Perris, Redondo, Pasadena and boat ride to Catalina. It's just been eating at me, I had to sound it out. Yup, I don't beleive it. Of course I should Take YOUR class to have the facts, I got some Junk instructors (EXCEPT Drew, HE tried and was a concientious instructor and HIS tutelage in the adv. class comprised the bulk of my hours. A PADI OWSI from Sport Chalet! good guy with amazing patience!)
