If the aboves correct? I agree 100% in this revision on the requirements its long overdue.
My thoughts are that every DM should have gained some experience in the sea. If you manage to fill the requirements as trainee DM as outlined above, ie lakes(temperatures, viz) Rivers (currents) presumably then you don't HAVE to dive in the sea and can still be certified?
