I’ll be arriving in mid-March,taking the next available ferry departing PDC for Coz. I will, however, be wearing my fully-inflated BCD for the duration of the crossing...

I think a BP/W would provide more protection, but I don't want to start a discussion about which is better, BCD or BP/W.

Just don't wear split fins.

I'm sorry - I wish I could unsee that too - LOL - but I'm sharing the suffering - hahaha

Christi, as a result of all this have you seen an immediate impact on your bookings? I'd like to think most Coz divers aren't bothered by this as the risks driving to work every day or diving for that matter present greater risks than traveling to Coz (or PDC for that matter) but obviously some are a getting spooked. Just wondering.

We fly out tomorrow morning for Cozumel and I will be diving with Christi's op again.

By the size of the April roll call I don't think too many have been detered. Of course us divers tend to be of uncommon stock.

So true... How many people thought we were nuts for getting certified and to go Scuba diving and then how many told us we were crazy to travel to some of the places we've gone. Oh well... I hope they enjoy their vacations to Disney World. Someone once told me a 1 week stay at Disney's Animal Kingdom resort costs more than a week on a true quality safari in Africa. I didn't believe him so I priced it and he was absolutely correct (excluding airfare of course). To each their own.

I have to admit. If I take the ferry to PDC, I will be wearing my NautiLus Lifeline Radio (original version). I will have it with me on dives, so why not on the ferry. I figure I can find a flotation device on the ferry.

I have been looking at coming down late April to early May and have seen flights to CUN come down quite a bit lately while flights to CZM have remained high. I assume this is related to what has been going on.

CZM has always been high. I watch airfares every day, and it is usually twice the price or CUN or higher. With FF miles, it was surprisingly cheap (although taxes and fees were still $88).
