LXD 028 : Mark Evans – Underwater Journalist & Magazine Editor

Retrieved from ScubaGuru - Expert Advice & Best Practices for Scuba Diving Professionals Mark Evans, legendary underwater journalist, Editor In Chief and Co-Founder of Scuba Diver Magazine Mark Evans has been diving since the age of 10.  He answered an ad for a water sports editor and his career in diving took off.  At the age of 25 he became the youngest diving magazine editor as Editor of Sport Diver Magazine in the United Kingdom.  He held that position for 18 years which allowed him the opportunity to literally dive all over the world.  Recently however, Mark began his own publishing company and co-founded Scuba Diver Magazine for the UK market.  But it has already grown into worldwide editions for Australia and New Zealand, and the US and Canada.  In fact, the US and Canada version is called Scuba Diver Destinations Magazine.  And it is an awesome publication.  And last year Mark and his business partner founded the Go Diving Show in Coventry, England.  This is a brilliant cutting edge diving show for both divers and pro’s.  Items In This Podcast First dive at 10 years of ageDiving in EnglandDid 1,500 dives BEFORE getting certified to diveWas the youngest editor of a diving magazineTiger Sharks in SudanThe horrible encounter on a river diveScapa Flow and other favorite divesScuba Diver MagazineScuba Diver Destinations MagazineGo Diving Show Sponsor Special thanks to our episode sponsor Aggressor Adventures Thanks For Listening!
