Chico's would be a good idea...

No, Leslie does not work for Pacific Scuba anymore because she and Nacho have started their own company. Also, they are both PADI DM's.

I went with Pacific after reading this thread about Chico's being expelled from PADI:

Yes, I know it's an old thread but, I just checked PADI's website and Chico's is still not listed.

Very interesting. I had heard that Chico's got expelled not just once but twice.
I still stand by my recommendation to go with Leslie and Nacho's operation. Leslie used to work for Pacific and Nacho used to work for Chicos...nothing like getting the best of both worlds!

Thanks, Leslie for clearing this up... All to often people make erroneous or defamatory comments because of their "own personal interests". Now that Nacho is with you diving with your operation would be a great Idea.

Hey Leslie!
I was wondering if that was Armando...that's pretty sad to have to do something like that.
We have pics for you!!!! We would like to send you a cd with the video and pics...could you PM me a shipping address?
By the way, our group is discussing coming out in November. There will be at least six of us. We'll keep you posted.

Good lesson to be learned here is: Do your research before you go. Scubaboard is a great place but anybody can say anything. Ultimately, your safety is your responsibility.
Leslie, thanks for supplying your credentials. I'm dissapointed if amano really is Armando from Pacific because I did have a great experience diving with them. I hate to think they'd stoop that low to damage your reputation.:no

I agree. My husband and I use Scubaboard all the time in helping us make decisions based on what is stated on the board. If it wasn't for Scubaboard, we probably would never have found out about Leslie and Nacho's business.
