Meet The Dive St. Vincent Staff

Your first contact with Dive St. Vincent will probably be with Jackie Bramble, Dive St. Vincent's Reservations Manager. Jackie answers the phones, manages the office, takes bookings, sends out literature and keeps up with the email. Jackie has been in the office for 9 years.

All the divemasters are Vincentian and can help find all the unusual creatures. They can help you with your buoyancy or model for your underwater photos. They are, "Jacks of all trades."

Callie (Calvert Richards) has worked at the shop for 18 years and knows every nook and crannie of the dive sites. His well trained eyes spot hidden creatures that most of us would miss. Callie specializes in night dives.

Millie (Angus Joseph), our mechanic. He's the one that keeps the boats moving. He is OMC factory trained and very good at his job.

D.J. (Don Carlos Jack) keeps the records and leads dives. He is an expert frogfish spotter and good with cameras as he aspires to be an underwater photographer. D.J. has 11 years experience with DSV. D.J.'s beautiful photograph of a seahorse with tail wrapped around a flamingo tngue is pictured here to the right.

Larry (Lawrence Matthews) maintains the boats and works as a dive guide. His bright smile and friendly face greet you each morning to help with gear. He is a willing model for underwater photos. He is the "new guy" with only 8 years at the shop.

Vida is the sales clerk. She answers the shop telephone, keeps track of the boats and divers, makes reservations for diving and can help with information about the area. She has worked for Dive St. Vincent for 4 years.

Dowie is a NAUI instructor from Barrouallie, St. Vincent who enjoys all aspects of diving from instruction to showing off the St. Vincent marine life. He has been with DSV for 14 years.
