Besides the fact that Wilmington is only 2 hrs and Scuba-Now runs the AOW class monthly from Thurs to Sun (Friday off, but I can work remote) and the actual charter costs are 50% off with the class... One of our friends has a condo near Atlantic Beach and we do spend a good chunk of time there. I'm really trying to get a solid base so I don't turn out to be "that guy" on the charters.
