Meet the Captain of the Under Pressure

Capt JT Barker has been a licensed captain for over 16 years. He is an avid Wreck Diver, Trimix Deep Diver, Cave Diver, and Adventure Seeker. He started running dive trips in 1994, has dived and led trips to many prestigious sites such as: Andrea Doria, E.M. Clark, Bow Mariner, and the famous wrecks of the Billy Mitchell Fleet, which includes the German Battleship Ostfriesland 380ft and Light Cruiser Frankfurt 420ft. Capt JT is presently exploring new virgin wrecks in VA/NC in the 300ft range while running dive charters for all levels of divers on his vessel the "Under Pressure". Capt JT holds himself to the highest standards of safety and leadership; his focus on risk management ensures that his trips are conducted safely. Capt JT runs way more recreational dive trips than technical and really enjoys these as Nancy(his better half) comes on many of these, he also runs fishing trips to many of the wrecks that he dives and knows exactly what's down there.
