Hi Frank,
It is a requirement that anybody diving deep beyond the OW depth of 60 has been trained to dive to those depths. So I am assuming that you are not an instructor?! It is not the piece of paper necessarily it is the training, and proof of experience is just a piece of paper to us! We have no way of knowing how they reacted to those depths when someone just shows a logbook. They can however hire a guide if they feel comfortable diving to those depths. The price is $25.00 per person with a minimum of $50.00.
Each shop currently has one boat on it so they would be split at different shops. The furthest distance between shops is 10 miles so no one would have to go too far!
For dive sites boy there are so many!
Deep Wrecks: Spiegel Grove, Duane, Eagle, Bibb
Shallow wrecks: Benwood, City of Washington, Mikes wreck
Shallow reefs: Molasses (31 sites here), French (several locations here too!), Davis, Conch wall, conch reef, Christ Statue, Mosquito Banks ,North North Dry Rocks, Hens and Chickens, Alligator reef
Just to name a few! Frank let me know if you have any more questions, or when you are ready to confirm this!
Thanks, Jaclyn
