Our History
Tom Hartdegen, a New Orleans, Louisiana businessman, became certified to dive in September of 1982. He left New Orleans for his first warm water dive vacation a week later; his destination, Cozumel. After experiencing "the stupendous diving, the friendly people, and the beautiful clear water" he returned to New Orleans with a dream. That dream became a reality in January of 1984, with the opening of a small shop called "M14834".
Since it's humble "whole in the wall" beginning, M14834 has grown into one of Cozumel's most respected dive facilities and is recognized as the #1 dive operator on the island. Owing to its excellent record of diver safety and personal attention to client needs, M14834 has been featured many times in Skin Diver Magazine, selected by Rodale's Scuba Diving magazine's Reader's Choice Awards as the "Most Popular Dive Operator in the World" three consecutive years.
Featured twice in Sea Fans Video Magazine, enjoyed highly favorable comments in In Depth, Discover Diving, Ocean Sports and Undercurrents Magazine, M14834 has achieved a level of client service that before, was unknown to Cozumel. -Bob Goddess
