As for costs, I was informed that the dive shops have to carry liability insurance in order to be issued permits. This would be a hidden cost not accounted for when we discussed the fact that permitting was free.
Instructors and shops that have instructors are required to have liability insurance to teach through their given agency. This is not some sought of add on liability insurance that the shops and instructors are buying to get the park permit that allows instructing in the park. It is not a hidden cost, its an upfront cost of doing business as scuba instructor or scuba shop. The park permit requires a copy of the insurance that they already carry. There is a yearly fee for the park permit, there are not extra fees for the night dives.


Phil Foster Park Dive Instructor Permit
 
Night dive last night with @MrChen. He showed me a stick about a half inch long and the thickness of a hair. He claims it was a ghost shrimp, but I think he magically made it move...
Also so one of the biggest nudis I've ever seen there. I call them longhorns, but that is clearly not the correct name.

... but were both of you out of the park by 10 pm??!! :wink:
 
I got out by 9:57.. had to hustle.. Cops were there.. entrance blocked...
 
got out of the water about 9:40... cutting it close to rinse, break down gear, put on dry clothes, stash gear, say goodbyes...
 
Skin of your teeth but last I checked, 9:57 is less than 10:00!!!
I was a rebel, I stayed until 10:02pm to text my family I was on my way home and setup the drive in Google Maps.

For 2 reasons, I'm going to try something new with my pictures. For 1, I'm frustrated that my pics get brought down for 3-4 different reasons and 2, the whole thing that you can only post 1 pic per message. Let's see if this works. My pics are on FB, public view, so anyone with an account should be able to see them.

OH well, I couldn't do what I wanted, here's a link:
