Our members are an assorted group of people. We have people from all types of professions. Throughout the years as friendships and experiences grew, we all figured it was about time our local dive community started a club.
Cape Dive Club is to promote the safe sport of scuba diving and share the friendship and knowledge with our fellow members. We want to offer members the opportunity to engage in diving together for mutual enjoyment of common activities such as shore dives, boat dives, lobster dives, promote community service activities, and much more.
Meet the officers of the Cape Dive Club. They have a variety of dive skills and experience to share with you. Their goal is to make sure the Club is successful and enjoyable!
Jodi Burnham began scuba diving in 2005. It is something she has a tremendous passion for and wished she had started many years earlier. She has a diversity of dives in her logbook. Her dives include locations North, South, and East of Cape Cod. She has also dove in Florida, Roatan, Tortola, and Bonaire.
When Jodi took up diving, it was from the encouragement of her husband Bryan who has been diving for twenty years. Her main interest was to dive the clear Caribbean waters when she was on vacation. However, this soon changed once she began diving the local waters of Cape Cod. She then found the splendor of the creatures in the waters right near her home. And then her diving sites were extended even more after meeting Jerry Cronin and his generosity of divulging her to the wreck diving around Cape Cod. She enjoys exploring and learning the history of the wrecks in the local waters.
Jodi continues to develop her diving skills. She is a Divemaster, Advanced Open Instructor, Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Instructor and an Evolution Rebreather diver. Jodi has also met many new friends in the diving community and finds scuba divers to be a remarkable group of people and hopes to meet many more in the years to come. This is why she wanted to help form a local dive club in our area.
Besides scuba diving, Jodi owns a horse, husband and a Harley Davidson, all of which she enjoys riding. And in between all of this, she works as the billing manager for The Cardiovascular Specialists full time.
Jerry Cronin's dive career spans four decades. During that time he has worked as a divemaster and equipment repair technician for East Coast Divers and The Dive Locker. Jerry has retired from his real job as a F-15 crew chief for the 102 Fighter Wing at Otis Air National Guard. Now that Jerry has retired, he is the main divemaster for the Cape Diver Charter boat and a scuba instructor.
Jerry has specialized in wreck diving and shipwreck research. He and many of his friends have located and dove over 70 sites, concentrating on wrecks in New England waters. He's made over 1100 wreck dives, 800 deep dives, and over 400 decompression dives.
1998 marked the year that Jerry began technical diving. His first forays were to wrecks like The U-853 and USS Bass. He's led nearly a dozen trips to the wrecks in the St. Lawrence Seaway, including trimix dives on the Roy Jodrey, a 700ft ore carrier in 250 feet of water. One of the well known dives Jerry has accomplished is the Andrea Doria. To date he's made dives in excess of 300ft.
One of Jerry's greatest pleasures in life is to introduce new divers to the incredible world of New England wreck diving. He's been running his own boat for over a decade to these wonderful time capsules and challenges friends and newcomers alike to "Come with him if you dare"
He looks forward to sharing his knowledge to new generations of divers.
Creator of the Secret Handshake - yet to be revealed! Unfortunately, Bob has been very mysterious about his diving career. Through some investigative work, it has been revealed that one of the reasons he enjoys diving is that he can relieve himself in his wetsuit. We wonder what he does now that he mostly dives in a drysuit.
