Anyone here use Sea Signs, a basic sign language vocabulary based upon ASL, but modified for diving?

Laura, I haven't heard of this. Is there a website that has the "signs?"

They just came out at DEMA this year that is the first time that we have seen them. We are in contact with the lady we spoke to at DEMA this year talking about the system.

Very cool guys! I am a certified sign language interpreter. Last year on vacation in Cozumel, ASL was a life saver underwater. Had a full conversation with a fellow interpreter about a moody barracuda. The ability to use language in the quiet world of water was terrific.

Just in the pool so far, but we're having a great time practicing on land.

my husband does cave diving & they have a their own sign "language" too that you need to learn to advance. Some of it can be applied to open water diving.

I'm not sure I want my wife to be able to communicate that clearly underwater. While in Bonaire once, we dove with a couple that was deaf. He apparently got in her way while she was trying to take a photograph and she really chewed him out underwater! I have a tendency to get the Mrs. Upset so I kind of enjoy not getting yelled at while diving.

My wife works with special needs children and is very familiar with ASL.

My husband and I aren't taking a class, per se, but are learning from the DVD (available on the product section of their website for USD$22.95.)

Do any of the dive shops on Bonaire have a class? With a month of free time we could have a lot of fun. A couple of rum punches or three, lots of waggling fingers and confusion between shark and b.....d
