This is a must have for divers! I signed up for DAN insurance shortly after becoming a diver a few years ago. I just received the tag I ordered from them which lists my DAN info (worn on your BCD) for quick reference in an emergency. Great series!
Signed up for coverage with DAN _just_ now! (Going on my first OW dive in a few hours. 😅)
Local scuba shop, Dans dive shop 🤟🤙
Dan is an amazing organization 🤙 I have them and recommend them to all my students
That’s me just signed up now a DAN member 😀
Many are unaware that the predecessor to DAN was actually a US Air Force program based at Brooks AFB in San Antonio, TX, under the leadership of Colonel Jefferson Davis, M.D. One would think it would have been a Navy program, but nope, it was the Air Force. Dr. Davis was an active supporter of recreational diving, and also a pioneer in the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for wound healing.
Great video been waiting for your Dan video 👍. I been putting this off for months . I dive in the uk and soon to dive overseas. I will check out the euro link and sign up . No Brainer . Cheers guys looking forward to the next DAN video. Keep up the good work 👍
Great info! Really looking g forward to the rest of this series. 🤙
+Jeremy Price appreciate it!
What I'm trying to figure out is if you need to be a member in order to buy there dive insurance
John, I could be writing but I think through the process of buying their dive insurance that also includes your membership. Give them a call. They are beyond helpful.
Where did this guy go??????? I’m looking to get in contact with him!
We are still here. Have not produced content lately due to some life issues but will be back soon.
@@everythingscuba awesome 😎 just checking. I appreciate all your past content
Dan is top notch if anybody dives and traveles would be dumb not to be a member
But really... what would we do without them?
I didn’t realize how inexpensive this actually is. You can get accident insurance and be a member for like $100 for the year…that’s just silly to not have
+souswes It is very surprising how inexpensive DAN coverage is!
This content is in stark contrast to the experience described on DiveTalk. Where, Woody almost died trying to receive help from DAN. Additionally, there are several anecdotes from other divers regarding their close calls with DAN. Disappointing.
