DiveMaster 2.0 is an inexpensive, easy to use, and full-featured diver's logbook
for Windows PCs. Designed for recreational divers who can't be bothered by
endless options and difficult to use interfaces, DiveMaster places every
important feature on the screen at once. You can enter as much information or as
little as you like and output easily to hardcopy for your records.
Statistics and search tools make your electronic log much more useful that one
kept on paper: you can easily find data and review trends in your diving to answer
questions like "What depth do I most frequently dive to, and how long do I
typically stay there?" or "Has my overall air consumption become better lately?
By how much?".
In addition to dive logging, DiveMaster is equally capable of logging equipment
details such as annual repairs, maintenance, serial numbers, etc. in the built-in
equipment log. You can maintain a complete history for each piece of gear you
own.
