Scuba Diving

Scuba Diving on Lammer LawGuests aboard Lammer Law handle their tanks as little as possible. Set up your tank for the first dive and the crew handles it from there. The tanks, with BCs and regs in place are stored along the outer walls of the aft deck. Masks, fins, snorkels and dive accessories are stored conveniently in trays located under the dive station which keeps the dive deck from becoming cluttered.

Scuba Diving on Lammer LawYour dive day usually begins early in the morning with the first dive of the day before breakfast. When the dive bell rings to announce the dive, interested divers gather in the saloon. Before every dive a thorough briefing is conducted by the divemaster and/or naturalist. The briefing outlines detailed information about the sub-surface terrain of the dive site, the expected visibility and current conditions, and things you are likely to see at this site. Both divemaster and naturalist join you during the dive and are helpful in pointing out much of the marine life.

Scuba Diving on Lammer LawAfter the dive the crew will take your tanks out of the pangas and put them back to your dive station. The crew will make sure you get a full tank for the next dive. Below deck there are three air compressors efficiently pumping the 3,000 psi aluminum 80s.

There is usually a second dive scheduled after breakfast. Depending upon which island the Lammer Law is at, the dive might be substituted for a shore excursion and the second dive could be moved to the afternoon. In some cases evening or night dives are scheduled, depending on location. At Roca Redonda, Wolf and Darwin three or four dives a day are scheduled.

Tanks, weight belts, and weights are provided, as is a dive alert and safety sausage in the event you don't already have one. There is no charge for these items unless they are lost.

Two camera rinse tanks and a fresh water shower hose are located at the back of the deck.

Occasionally, you can dive from Lammer Law. Her clever dive platform and extended ladders are quite convenient for dives from the back of the vessel if conditions and schedules permit.
