Diving Equipment Technical Manuals

Unlike most technical writers in diving, Steve Barsky can not only write about your gear, but can also dive it and photograph it, both topside and underwater. Once the content of your manual is complete, Steve can also lay it out, index it, and deliver the entire manual on disk ready for printing. There is literally no one else in the industry who delivers this level of service.

Steve has the technical ability to take a piece of gear for which there are no instructions, figure it out, and write the end user or repair manual. Since most of his work is done in cold water, he can give your manual the perspective of the user who must dive in harsh environments.

Steve has produced both user manuals for diving equipment and student manuals for diver training agencies. He also has produced repair manuals for equipment technicians.

Companies for whom Steve has completed training or equipment manuals include:

AquaLung
Body Glove
Dive Rescue International
Diving Unlimited International
Drager
Hunter
Kirby Morgan Diving Systems
Mares
NAUI
Nuvair
O’Neill
Scuba Diving International
Scuba Schools International

Steve has also written manuals for complete saturation diving systems. All of the manuals Steve produces are delivered electronically, ready for printing. For a free quote on your next project, contact us!

Steve has written manuals for full-face masks, diving helmets, regulators, communications systems, buoyancy compensators, dry suits, and dive computers.

Steve Barsky was one of the first people in the diving industry to recognize the importance of the issue of "duty to warn" and to include appropriate warnings in the manuals he produces for his clients.
