Trip Ready Dive Pack

The Trip Ready Dive Pack is a complete system for preparing, packing, and troubleshooting any dive trip. It is built for recreational divers who want simple tools that make trip preparation easier. Each item removes stress, protects your dives, and keeps the trip moving when travel problems show up. These are the actual tools I personally use on real boats, in airports, and at resorts around the world. Use the pieces individually or run the full system from planning to the final dive. Everything here serves one purpose: keep you ready.

Who this pack is for

This pack is built for certified recreational divers who travel with their own gear and want repeatable, low-stress trip preparation. It assumes you already know how to dive and want fewer avoidable problems when you travel.

• Divers traveling with personal gear
• Resort, liveaboard, and boat diving
• Warm to moderate water trips
• Domestic and international travel

The problem

Most dive trips fail in small, boring ways. A missing adapter. Wet gear packed wrong. A critical item buried in checked luggage. A rental substitution that was never planned for. These are not training problems. They are preparation failures. The Trip Ready Pack exists to catch those failures early, when they are cheap and easy to fix.

What is included

15 pages of fully researched and tested structured checklists and printables. Each item is designed to stand alone and be printed, saved to a phone, or kept in a logbook.

How this pack is used

Most divers do not use this pack all at once. It gets reused at specific failure points throughout a trip:

• Before travel to confirm documents, critical gear, and items that cannot be replaced on arrival
• During packing to separate what must stay with you from what can be checked or rented
• On arrival to catch missing gear and rental substitutions while there is still time to fix them
• On dive days to reduce last-minute decisions and mental load before getting in the water
