Dive Patches International enters the seventh year in business with great
expansion plans. We now have our feet firmly planted on the beach and
have entered the specially advertising business to support our customer
request for more that patches and pins. To cordinate the entire advertising
campaign we now offer a full line of specially products. Call or Email
for a catalog. Our second focus will be on the establishment of representatives
through out the Caribbean. The success of our Belize operation will be
repeated many times over with this new endeavor.
Our goal is to get Patches and Pins in the hands of Divers the world over.

Bob and Tasha flew to Marsh Harbor and took Alburys Ferry to Guana Cay
to spend a week wit Troy And Maria Albury owners of Dive Guana. The visit
was wonderful. Diving with Troy is great. He takes families to the Marine
Park where the divers and snorkels can see the marine life in crystal
clear waters. Guana Cay is a beautiful and quiet place where families
can reunite. There is miles of beautiful beaches. Call Dive Patches International
to help you plan a trip there.

Tervis
Tumblers passes the chamber test.
One of our customers Jeffrey
Bertsch of The International Board of Undersea Medicine in Key Largo,
FL had the idea to put his new Tervis Tumbler to the test. After what
is there to loose, they have a lifetime warranty and are made of aircraft
acrylic. He put a double walled insulated mug with his new patch in the
chamber and took it down to 165 ft. below sea level. The tumbler was unfazed
by the experience, as evidenced in the photograph sent in by Jeffrey.
