Is Kevin up and running again? I didn't see anything via FB, but his reservation system appears to be open; however, not sure to what extent people actually use it, as I haven't had the opportunity to dive in FL in quite some time.
Hi @annaseaIs Kevin up and running again? I didn't see anything via FB, but his reservation system appears to be open; however, not sure to what extent people actually use it, as I haven't had the opportunity to dive in FL in quite some time.
I've dove with Starfish but always showed up with a buddy. When showing up alone do they let you dive solo towing your own flag or do they pair you up with insta buddy?
.... Also I dive with a pony for redundancy and have a Divemaster, Solo and Trimix card. Not at all saying you're not equally qualified (or more so!) just qualifying the circumstances for why the let me dive solo.
I would communicate with Adam and Maggie regarding your own circumstances. I bring my own flag and reel so as to not have to use the communal equipment, especially when crowed. Plus, then they know which one I amThanks for the info and clarifying....
.. and no offense taken LOL, you are way more qualified than me..
Yes, Kevin Metz. I didn't see any re-opening announcement on FB or his webpage, so was wondering. Ideally, he's back at at soon if it's still his primary source of income, or he's found other ventures to put his talents towards.Hi @annasea
I texted with Kevin at Underwaters Explorers today. I hope this is the Kevin to whom you refer. He is not yet running. He is waiting for a period to see what Florida reopening does to the statistics. He is also figuring out how to best implement distancing and other precautions on the Explorer.
I am planning a visit to SE FL in the next week or two for a week to 10 days of diving. I'm hoping to have the opportunity to dive with UE. I will post on my trip.
