Yacht Scuba Safety completes dive operations programs for MY Roma & MY Vava

Published

on

Yacht Scuba Safety (YSS) have announced the successful completion of 61m MY Roma’s scuba diving operations program which included the installation and set-up of a PADI Superyacht Centre.

MY Roma travels the Mediterranean. It’s available for charter and is fully capable of teaching dive courses and supervising recreational diving activities with the highest standards of safety. The on-board dive team within the crew of 16 consists of 1 instructor, 2 Divemasters and 3 Rescue Divers, all trained under the guidance of Ondine’s Yacht Scuba Safety program.

Janusz Walinski, Captain of MY Roma, offers the following Testimonial:

“I can recommend Scuba Yacht Safety highly to any Yacht who wants to organize and improve their diving operations. What you learn with Brad Robertson will be exactly what you need to provide your guests with a tailor-made diving service that’s equal to your overall Superyacht standard.”

Previously, YSS have developed the dive operations program and manual of operations for MY Vava. Captain Glen McDonnell comments:

“Ondine Escape & Yacht Scuba Safety were engaged by M.Y. Vava to formulate a safe diving program for our operations on board Vava which has proven to be a very significant addition to our Safe Operations when engaging in diving activities. Brad and Nick brought to my attention that they could formulate a specific customised safe operations manual for Vava under the title of the Yacht Scuba Safety program. Given that we have had limited diving activity in recent years but carry a full complement of dive gear I agreed to their proposal and am more than satisfied with the results. Both Nick and Brad visited Vava on a number of occasions to assess the platform, equipment and the relative experience of our dive team so that they could formulate a Vava-specific manual of operations plus identify any areas that needed to be addressed to ensure our visit to the Chagos and Indian Ocean would be completed with maximum awareness and safety. The result was a comprehensive manual of operations for the greater range of potential dive experiences we would encounter which was tailored for the limitations of the equipment we have on board plus the relative experience of the divers.”
