Deciding between AquaSafari & Ameridive for NAUI AOW

[dlwalke]

I'll be heading down to WPB/Boynton with the purpose of getting my AOW certification. A web search turned up 4 places that offer NAUI certification in those parts. Of the 4 I called, 2 sounded good - AquaSafari with Dave Oaks as the instructer (considerably more expensive than other sites, but very enthusiastic, amiable, and seemingly competent guy) and Ameridive (much better price). I have no experience with either and am soliciting opinions.

Thanks in Advance,
Dave

i live in boynton beach, and am finishing my diving certification for OW this weekend through padi. But when i was looking for shops to get certified with i went to ameridive, and the guys there are really cool. They have awesome gear if you are going to rent. everything is brand new. They are also very enthusiastic, i believe i talked to chris, and he was a very cool guy. I just didnt choose them because of scheduling conflicts with their ow classes.
