Have passport will travel! Whenever Everette is not at the dive center, there is a good chance he is somewhere exploring the world. One of his goals is to visit every country on the planet and has logged frequent flyer miles and dives in some of the famous and most obscure places imaginable. As a birthday present over 30 years ago, he was certified by a fraternity brother and began diving in the Red Sea. Ultimately he quickly rose through the ranks as an explorer, advocating for the underwater world, and achieved the rating of PADI Course Director developing the careers of other PADI pros on several continents.
