Dear Fellow Diver,

For the last 15 months, during our COVID hiatus, you have received free emails from Undercurrent about all aspects of dive travel and diving. But who are we?

Undercurrent, the private guide for traveling divers, is the advertising-free, nonprofit, consumer review of scuba diving that has been published monthly since 1975. Our writers review diving venues anonymously, and because we take no advertising, we only please our fellow divers, never the dive industry,

Because COVID stopped dive travel, we have not published or taken new subscriptions for 15-months, and we extended our current subscribers for the full 15 months, so there has been no charge to them. Today, however, I’m delighted to report that we are resuming publication on a limited basis and will get back to normal when the world beyond the Caribbean opens up.

Besides our monthly issues, which traditionally have run 16 or more pages, we send our subscribers frequent emails filled with important diving information. You have been receiving a free sample version of that email, with only a few items we send to our subscribers. We’re now ready to up our game, still with a reduced publication schedule, but of course, providing our anonymous travel reviews and critical diving articles on safety, health, equipment, and dive travel you’ll find nowhere else.

Once you subscribe, you can research the scores of reader reports already pouring in from other subscribers who have just dived the Keys, Belize, Bonaire, Hawaii, Socorro, and many other places. There’s no better way to get current and honest information about dive destinations than from your fellow subscribers. You can even email them for more information.

So, I am inviting you today to become an Undercurrent subscriber, at no risk to you, because for 46 years, I have offered a money-back guarantee, no questions asked.

Our first post-COVID issue includes an undercover review of Cozumel diving by our masked reviewer – is it safe to go there? -- a report on a significant $11 million diving lawsuit against a dive instructor, a dive business, and PADI, a piece on the legal risk of selling used equipment, and more. Future issues will follow, not yet every month, but as frequently as our travel reviewers begin boarding planes and getting wet. Between issues, we will continue to send you subscriber-only emails alerting you to critical diving and travel issues, information available from no other dive publication.

So, I’m offering you a six-month trial subscription for just $16.95 until we get back to a regular schedule with full-length issues. Remember, if at any time during these next six months you want your money back for any reason, contact me at BenDDavison@undercurrent.org, and I’ll give you a full refund. No questions asked. It’s been my pledge for 46 years.

So, click here to accept our money-back offer.

And, if you don’t think you know enough about Undercurrent, click www.undercurrent.org to visit our website and review a couple of decades of back issues.

And, while you’re there, I hope you’ll subscribe and join the thousands upon thousands of other divers who have been with us for longer than I can remember. They wouldn’t go diving without Undercurrent, and neither should you.

Ben Davison, Publisher
