I get three phone calls per day to go to the Spill, from various contractors. Mel and I chose to honor our commitment to divers, although we have made a different choice in the past, so I fully understand where the Fling is coming from.
It is interesting watching this thread. As I said this morning, we had a shop drop a bunch of spots this morning for a July trip. We are supporting divers by continuing to offer trips right up until NOAA, USCG, or NPS closes our areas to diving. Divers are not honoring their reservations. Makes this whole thread a little one sided.
well, i'm going to 'honor my reservation' with the fling until the last minute. july 12th. if i hear otherwise before then, i'll just putz around the murky depths of lake travis that weekend. if not, i will be ever so gracious the operators have 'honored' theirs. first trip to the flower gardens and all. but my fear is that i'll get a notification sometime around july 8th saying "yeah, sorry about that ... we're going to keep on doing what we've been doing ... indefinetly ... and you can go pound sand "
i can see the headlines now in the chronicle: "deranged diver hijacks containership for one-man-liveaboard cruise. port of houston closed until further notice."
