No doubt we all have our favorites. No doubt most of us have tried no more than a couple of operators. I've now tried three. And by far, SilentWorld gets my vote for "Best Value".
Reasons: When you purchase a package of 5 two-tank dives, the cost is only $40 per trip, including air. The boats, Island Hoppers, are fast and small, so you don't have the cattle boat mentality and they get you to your dive site and back quicker than most. The captains are safe and friendly. They dive at least one site that many, if not most upper key operators avoid, such as Carys Fort Reef (shhhhh...don't tell anyone what a nice dive site that is).
As new owners, I wish Chris and Alison good fortunes.
