S3:E08 | Tech Diving Instructor & Commercial Salvage Diver Red Sullivan talks nasty dive sites, dangerous situations, & even teaching students. He also shares his home remedy for his famous "Ear Beer"
Red Sullivan owns a scuba gear service company and commercial dive salvage operation called Bluewater Diving, based in Daytona Beach, FL.
While working on gear or teaching technical diving courses such as Rebreather, Cavern & Cave Diving, Red listens each day on his massive radio tower for the call.
Calls come in requesting help with sunken boats, a need to sink a boat to form an artificial reef, or even airplanes and cars that find themselves on the bottom of a local pond or waterway. Red spends his in between time at the work bench, servicing scuba regulators and equipment from all over the world. He services gear for dive shops and other facilities, and has been for over 30 years. In that time, he's seen some wild stuff.
Red talks about teaching techniques with open water scuba certification (such as teaching on knees vs starting from a neutral position) as well as some contrasts between recreational and tech diving, from an Instructor's viewpoint.
This is also the famous "ear beer" story from those viral post on all the sweetwater channels, …or possibly better known as “Red’s Ear Beer”
His personal concoction to keep ears form getting infected while diving in nasty water.
The second interview is finally here and I hope you enjoy this episode!
Red Sullivan is the owner of Bluewater Diving in Daytona Beach, FL
