Guess you'll have to bring your DIn to yoke adaptor.
I had a bit of trouble in Cozumel as well, they told me no DIN.

Most rental tanks are yoke, and the explanation I read is the DIN threads in the tank connection are more prone to damage in a rental setting. I just take a DIN to yoke adapter and never had a problem.

Oh no, they won't convert their tanks to accommodate my desires. What can I do?

Converting a regulator is quite easy. Or just keep a couple of each on hand.

Yes, it's well known how anti-european the dutch are...

Check with Dive Friends or WannaDive, I believe it was one of them that had HP tanks last year...

I remember talking with a group from Germany who had rented HP tanks from one of them.
