Great Dive Instructor Job?

Recently on Bonaire we saw Paul Allen’s second yacht, Octopus. It is huge, big enough for a hangar for the two helicopters it carries! Big enough to carry a resident dive instructor to teach and guide the guests as necessary.

I was told that the dive instructor had resigned and that there was a job vacancy. It is a four months on, two months off job. And the pay? $1500 a week when on, $800 a week when off. Tax free with free board and keep.

So why did he resign? Just 17 dives in 12 months and all his working time spent cleaning the boat.

    I wouldn’t touch that job. It’s a boat monkey in disgusise as a dive instructor. But it beats sitting in an office.
