Has anyone ever done Sea Trekkin/BOB diving in St. Thomas? (helmet underwater dive)

[lisa6191]

I was trying to get some information about snorkeling in St. Thomas and came across some information about helmet underwater diving. It sounds like there are two kinds - Sea Trekkin which is diving with a big old fashioned looking helmet, and BOB diving, where you do the same thing but are on some kind of a scooter apparatus. Has anyone ever done either of these things??? They sound fun!!

I had seen this (BOB) and even downloaded the site. It looks pretty cool. It pretty expensive too. If I find the sit , I'll post it.

I believe it is going to be on one of the reality shows for the celebrities in Yucatan.

Although I haven't done it, we saw it at Buck's Island, St. Thomas. They were "driving" their underwater "mopeds" in the exact same place we were snorkelling. (We were on the Buck Island Sail and Snorkel ~ an 8 person Catamaran that only 6 passengers go on)

It looked cool and interesting but personally, I'd rather do it were being submerged really made a difference making the price difference worth it.

they were seeing the exact same things we saw, and we only paid $50 pp
