Although the event was organized by Divetech, support was received from many of the other dive centres in Grand Cayman who donated, staff, tanks and equipment to ensure the record could be broken.
On the day itself the community came together with businesses donating hundreds of dollars worth of prizes for a raffle. Representatives from the Cayman Department of Environment, the Central Caribbean Marine Institute (CCMI) and Lionfish Cull experts were on hand to educate the attendee’s as well as the local marine police helping with safety & surface watch.
All proceeds from the charitable event were donated to the Cayman Breast Cancer Foundation with $6,500 US raised in total.
