Pete was scuba certified scuba in 1976, commercial diver certification in 1983. He has  worked for several underwater engineering companies throughout his career. Some of the clients he has served were various individual state agency's, the federal government and the US Navy just to name a few. Pete has been an active speaker at regional dive shows such as Beneath the Sea, Boston Sea Rovers and Our World Underwater. He has been a long time friend and supporter of our club. 


Surface supplied diving is the oldest known method of exploring the underwater world. A group of historical minded divers traveled to Tobermory Ontario to dive the Mark V system on historical shipwrecks and to commemorate the one hundred year anniversary of the US Navy's use of the Mark V, probably the most widely recognized helmet of all. Featured in many Hollywood movies such as Men Of Honor starring Cuba Gooding Jr.
