Services
We offer visiting or local divers everything you are likely to need to make your trip a memorable one. We can
arrange your trips, whether you want a day trip or a live aboard. We have a number of established operators who welcome rebreather
divers and are more than happy to take you out and show you the best dive sites on the Great Barrier Reef. We have
tanks, sorb O2 and mixed gas boosted to 200bar (3000 psi). We have a dedicated Megalodon CCR and an AP
Diving Inspiration Vision unit for training or hire and now can train you on either your own Megalodon CCR or ours. We offer
Trial Dives for you to get the feel of diving a Rebreather to see if it is what you want before buying your own unit.
Lance travelled to Innerspace Systems Corp in the US and successfully completed Factory Technician Training allowing
him to carry out any repairs or modifications to the Megalodon CCR. This also includes integration of the Shearwater Dive
Computer to the Megalodon which has become extremely popular with divers. We stock a number products from well known
manufacturers. Keep an eye out on our specials page for the latest additions to our line up.

Our History
Lance had been diving for over 30 years and has come up through the ranks and is a qualified Technical Diving
Instructor and a Megalodon CCR Instructor. A lot has changed in the years since he started diving and he has kept up to date
with all the latest in Technical Diving so he can assist you with your needs. Closed Circuit Divers was started
in April 2008 as there was no way for a visiting CCR diver to dive their equipment on the Great Barrier Reef. Queensland
Workplace Health and Safety Legeslation requires there is a qualified "Rebreather Supervisor" aboard the boat
whenever CCR divers are present. Up until now this has been the biggest hurdle and prompted us to train our own supervisors
so we can satisfy this requirement. Finding boat operators who are prepared to take CCR divers has been another hurdle and
we now have a number of boats who are happy to take us out after many dives to show them the professional way in which
we conduct our diving. Now Lance can teach you to dive a Megalodon CCR in his facility in Cairns on your unit or our dedicated
training unit.
