Diving story

Ebook (EPUB Format)

This is the autobiography of air diver/welder Robert 'Bob' Acton. It is an amusing and very readable story of how Bob managed to break into professional diving at the age of 23 in 1976 with North Sea Diving Services, having been a keen amateur and how his career developed the hard way, in West Africa. As might be expected, his life is full of gritty anecdotes of hairy operations. But he seems to have made much life - long friends along the way and just one or two enemies. 'Diving for a living' is aimed at anyone who is interested in knowing about the ups and downs, trials and tribulations of the offshore diver.

Über den Autor


No employer pays a diver just for diving he would need another skill… I was welder. I made my first commercial dive in 1976 (I was 23) for North Sea diving services after being interviewed over the phone about sea sickness and nil visibility. I was apprehensive when I left home after being told that my job was going to be dangerous, and I would be working day and night in pitch black water. I survived but there were a lot of divers that perished in the early days. After a few months on this job the company asked me to go out to West Africa (Nigeria). I didn't even know where Nigeria was and believe it or not I had only flown once before!!! This is a true story of my life as a diver, with the friends I had, the dangers, and the amusing times that I had during my 20 years of commercial diving. I have included many coloured pictures. It's a good story which I hope you will enjoy.
