PADI 5-Star Dive Center!

Posted on

Dive On It Scuba awarded PADI 5-Star Status!

That's right, we're Rhode Islands FIRST 5-Star PADI Dive Center!  Thanks to all our staff and divers for making this happen!   We had a little bit of a rocky start when we got going this time 2 years ago, but that hard work of all involved has paid off! We've got some great things lined up for this year including some really sweet dive trips (within driving distance!), new products and new training opportunities.   We'll be expanding our technical diving reach this summer as well as greatly expanding our offering of tech diving gear from Hollis and Apeks.

We're still on Winter hours for the next month or so.  But we intend that by the end of April we'll be back on Summer hours plus with any luck by the end of May or early June we'll be able to expand our hours a bit more on weekdays.

 

Thanks!

Policies regarding old DiveOnIt INC Customers

DiveOnIt INC Customers

Hi all,

Just wanted to let everyone know that while we're trying to make sure all former DiveOnIt Scuba Supply (DiveOnIt, Inc) customers are well taken care of, we may not be able to handle every situation.   ScubaTrainors, LLC did NOT purchase the original business "DiveOnIt, Inc" nor the sole-proprietorship DiveOnIt Scuba Supply that existed after the revocation of DiveOnIt, Inc's corporate status in 2014.   We entered into an agreement with the landlord to take over the retail space, then purchased select fixtures & assets from the former owners of the shop.  We chose to keep the name "Dive On It Scuba" to allow customers to find us easily and know that some of the former instructors were now operating the shop.  We also became custodian of records for PADI divers certified thru DiveOnIt, Inc & DiveOnIt Scuba Supply (for the records on-hand and available at the 1000 Mendon Road location).

If you have a prepaid class, equipment owed or gift card issues by DiveOnIt INC/DiveOnIt Scuba Supply prior to March 2017 please contact us at the shop to see how we may be able to help.

If you have left equipment or tanks to be serviced prior to March 2017 we may have it on hand.  However, some items such as cylinders or regulators may have been out for service at other locations.  We're still trying to track down what's going on with those items.

If you have an air card purchased prior to March 2017, we will honor one card (9 fills maximum) per customer until June 30th 2017. 

Any further questions, don't hesitate to contact us. 

 

Thanks,

--Allison & Chris

A new shop & New Owners, coming soon!

Posted on

Welcome to the new Dive On It Scuba web page.

You were probably looking for the old DiveOnIt Scuba Supply page. As most folks know, the shop itself has been closed since November. However as of March 2017, DiveOnIt, under the ownership of Matthew & Jerika Verrier has ceased to be a going concern. While Matthew and Jerika had hoped to reopen this spring, they decided it was in their best interest to close permanently.

That being said, a couple of folks who had worked with DiveOnIt over the past few years didn't want the dive community in Northern Rhode Island and South East Massachusetts lose out on a convenient and helpful dive shop and training facility. An arrangement was made by ScubaTrainors, LLC with DiveOnIt's landlord to take over the retail space and also with the former shop owners Matthew and Jerika to utilize the DiveOnIt name & PADI affiliation.

Right now we're working on acquiring inventory, rental gear & equipment to have the new shop open by April 1st. Keep an eye on this page for more details and we hope you'll come check us out when we open the doors once again!
