Moderator's note: I assume this post was tongue-in-cheek. Otherwise, generalized insults aren't allowed. deepdiver4, how about editing this to show your intent? If you indeed have a beef with this operator, tell us what was wrong. If not, the post will be canned.

Tavernier dive center is a great out fit and mike the owner is a great guy and a fun group to gout with.

Florida Key's Dive Center bought out Tavenier earlier this year. I used them last month without problems. They allow doubles and deco as long as you plan ahead.http://www.floridakeysdivectr.com

Good folks at FKDC, I second Ken's recommendation.

I can't agree with that comment. Spencer Slate runs a top notch operation so there must have been some reason beyond his control why you didn't have a good day. It was his crew and people that asssisted with the Spiegel Grove recoveries. He is a long time friend to cave divers. /Ken

I have been out with Horizon divers several times. They are very tech friendly. Their small boat is good for a small number of tech equipped divers.

Silent World is very tech oriented.

I have gone out many times with Slate and even more times with the Florida Keys Dive Center. I like both of them. Slate goes to the Spiegel Grove more often. Florida Keys Dive Center goes to the Duane and the Bibb more often. I've also had some good dives with Conch Republic and Quiescence.
