I see this is your first post on Scuba Board. Coincidence? Yes, I gave a poor review on Trip Advisor. You must be well connected to Southpoint to even go there to check it out. If you look at my other reviews on Trip Advisor, you will see that I have a great time wherever I go and review as such. My experience with Southpoint Divers was an exception to that and it was reflected in my review.
I never said I had a million dives.
If you read my report, you'll see that I chose Southpoint Divers not due to lack of experience, but because it was a last minute trip and they were the only shop planning to go to the Vandy the day we would be there.
I have never been asked never to return to a town by a message board poster for providing feedback for others who may appreciate it. That's just plain silly or you are a teenager and don't know any better. You are certainly welcome to come dive Jupiter. I'll take you out and show you some really cool stuff.
I find their "conservative" policies a bit hypocritical. They won't allow "qualified divers" as they call it on their website to dive their profiles, yet will allow anybody with a certification card to drop on a 140' wreck without an experienced guide. Where is the concern for safety as you speak? Interesting.
"You say you have a million dives...how are you that experienced and still go out on a charter that doesn't fit your cool guy profile."
And furthermore, I'm not a cool guy. I'm a VERY cool girl ;-)

I sent an email to the company although didn't mention that I wouldn't be back. That's evident. I was not inflammatory but just asked for an explanation why they state on the site that qualified divers may dive their profiles then not allow it. They got our $85 and will get it again and again from others.
