EQUIPMENT OFFICER SHED HOURS
Whenever you need to request gear, please go to our Discord and use the #i-need-equipment channel and enter your request there! An Equipment Officer will reach out to coordinate a time for when you can pick up your gear, if it is available. We require a minimum of 36 hours notice to distribute gear due to Officer scheduling and Club needs.

OFFICERS WILL LEAVE THE SHED AFTER 15 MINUTES IF YOU ARE NOT THERE. 
Please arrive on-time or early to be respectful of their time, as they are volunteers taking time out of their day to assist you!

YOU NEED YOUR OWN MASK, FINS, AND SNORKEL.
If you don’t know where to go to buy these things, just email the club or talk to any officer!

Club equipment may be used only by active (dues paid) Club members in good standing. Certified members are allowed to rent out any equipment for personal dives with permission by the Equipment Managers/other officers. You are responsible for any equipment checked out! If you are interested in purchasing your own equipment (highly recommended) the Club can refer you to area dive shops.

The club provides: 

  • Regulators

  • BCDs

  • Weights & weight belts

  • Dive computers

  • Dive Marker Buoys/Safety Sausages

  • Air Tanks (Nitrox is available for a small fee)

Some things to remember:

  1. ** NO SPEARFISHING, COLLECTING, OR LOBSTERING IS ALLOWED USING CLUB GEAR. **

  2. If you want to rent out gear on your own, you need to return your gear by the Monday following the dive (or make arrangements with the equipment officers.) This is extremely important, because we have a limited supply of gear and need it for the next weekend. 
    Gear rentals are NOT guaranteed - our first priority is to provide for weekend club dives!

  3. You must check out the gear yourself. We will not distribute gear to non-club members, regardless of relationship to the member they are claiming to be picking up for.

  4. All equipment must be rinsed with freshwater prior to return to the shed
    (inside and out in the case of BCDs and wetsuits)

  5. To make arrangements to rent gear, contact an Equipment Officer or Freshmen Officer.

  6. There is no guarantee of having enough weight, weight belts, or computers for everyone on the dive.

  7. Equipment used on a club dive needs to be returned immediately after the dive. There is no stopping on the way back from dives, please respect the time of the club officers leading your diving experience. Equipment used on personal dives needs to be returned by the Monday following the dive (or make arrangements with the equipment officers).

  8. Tanks must be returned with at least 500psi in them. Returning them with any pressure less will result in a fine.

  9. Any member who loses or damages gear will be expected to pay for the replacement/repair fee, without exception.
