Dive Wakulla
Suppose that you could do a guided cave dive into Wakulla Spring through the "Grand Canyon" and to the junction of Tunnel B...about a 1,100 penetration and a 270 foot max depth. Further, the dive requires that you purchase a "license" in addition to meeting appropriate qualifications.
Would you be willing to pay $300 for the license required to do the dive?

Would this be a one-use license, of would it be good for a specified period, such as a year?
Whoever said money can't buy love never bought a puppy.
How about just dive the system from outside the spring itself?... For way cheaper.
No, I wouldn't pay $300.
Not just no, but hell no!
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to dive Wakulla. But there's no way I'd pay $300 to do it, especially since it's owned by the State. And I flatly refuse to dive any cave that requires me to be 'guided.' Don't even get me started on that topic...

Good one!Just measuring the value you place on love
Will they be charging the GUE guys $300 per dive?
That's rhetorical... but since I went there, I'll tell you what - I'll pay $300 if they also charge the GUE guys. Hell, I'd pay it and not do the dive!

Why pay to dive a site that tax money pay for?
I have a state park pass... that's all that should be needed...

I would easily pay $300.00 for an opportunity to be able to dive a system whose doors have been closed to me, especially since I am getting older and as the economy continues to sink deeper than the ocean itself.

At that price I will take you.
Is Soviet way, is good.
