James "Jim" Eagens
PADI Master
Scuba Diver Trainer
Jim has been teaching in the
Conyers/Covington area since December 2003. Jim is thorough
and patient and has even been recognized by PADI for that.
When Jim is not at his
"full-time" job you will almost surely find him working in
the store either helping out on the floor, servicing
equipment or assisting with the "behind the scenes"
operation of the store. One thing for sure if you have a
question or need help with anything scuba related, he can
answer it, or will not stop researching it until he gets you
an honest answer.
Specialties: Deep,
Wreck, U/W Navigation, Search and Recovery, Night, Dry Suit,
Enriched Air, Equipment Specialist

Tim Kennedy
PADI Open Water
Scuba Instructor
Tim’s interests are
diverse, from motorcycling, to woodworking, to scuba.
His adventures in diving began in 1999 when he talked
the whole family into getting certified. Since then he
and his wife have taken the opportunity to travel
throughout the Caribbean and to Australia. He has
continued to pursue diverse areas of scuba, currently
studying technical diving, and is a certified gas
blender. As an Open Water Instructor, Tim is always
thinking of ways to tailor his teaching to the
individual. His students have said his attentiveness
assures success for everyone, men women and children
alike. Tim believes there is
always something new to learn and somewhere new to go.
Let’s go diving!

Jerry Thompson
PADI Specialty Instructor
Jerry first learned about
scuba diving from watching re-runs of “Sea Hunt” and “Voyage
to the Bottom of the Sea.” He and his best friend were
certified in 1983. When his instructor asked him to help
one of his fellow students with a problem they were having,
he was hooked. His focus from that day on was to become an
Open Water Instructor. Anyone who knows Jerry also knows
his journey to become an instructor has not been an easy
one, but as his Course Director said of him, “You are the
most dedicated and determined Instructor Candidate I have
ever met”, that was certainly the truth. His hard work and
determination paid off when he was certified as an Open
Water Instructor in 2007. Jerry’s patience and
understanding makes him an asset to any class he is involved
with. When he is not working is full-time job, you will
probably catch Jerry at the shop, talking scuba so stop on
by when you have time.
Jerry is also a First
Response Instructor, trained to teach Adult and Infant CPR/AED
(Automated External Defibrillator) and First Aid.
Specialties: Enriched
Air Nitrox, Boat, Deep, Night, Wreck and Underwater

Veronica "VJ" Fallin
PADI Specialty Instructor
Originally from the San
Francisco Bay area, VJ has loved the water all her life....
Taking summer trips to visit
relatives in Hawaii, living near the ocean in California and
having a pool in the back yard, I was always in the water. I
always preferred being under the water's surface and when I
was certified in SCUBA in Monterey, CA, being able to stay
under for long periods of time was a dream come true!
I love to dive! I was certified for
13 years before becoming an instructor. I am glad I
took the "plunge" so that I am able teach and share the joys
of Scuba with new divers! I am also an Emergency First
Response Instructor so I can also teach CPR/AED (automated
external defibrillator), another great thing. Being able
teach someone how to save another's life.
Come on by the shop and let's talk
about where you have been or where you would love to go!
The possibilities are endless............................
Specialties:
Enriched Air Nitrox, Boat, Deep, Night, Wreck, Underwater
