Another good piece of news is that the South Ocean Beach website is finally admitting that the place is closed and being renovated, so hopefully no-one else will get stuck.
As for Stuart Cove's, my opinion is not high considering hubby has a paint stained shortie from a boat they used without letting the paint cure properly, we both got stuck "at sea" for a couple of hours when one of their boats broke down and they had no radio, and my unfortunate experience acting as an involuntary snorkeling instructor for two obnoxious children one afternoon because Stuart's shop didn't bother to provide anyone to go with the kids (or even check as to the children's skills, etc.) IMO, Stuart and his wife are far more concerned about making movies than in providing good services for divers. Others, though, swear by the place, so its a matter or opinion.
