Down Under dive shop, and the boat of the same name, are an outfit I have used a number of times, and really like them.
Orange Beach and Pensacola got absolultely hammered by Hurricane Sally, though "onlyi" a Cat 1, she pushed a whole lot of water ahead of her.
Anyway I would typically day-dive there this time of year before the Gulf gets too cold.
So I called them mostly ask how they came through it. The news wasn't all that bad. The marina sustained some damage but wasn't wiped out. Dock boxes went drifting away, water was very high. But their boat is okay. They're waiting to hear about the channel depths, which may have been affected. In which case they might make a dive trip next weekend or the one after that.
I haven't checked with the other ops I've used over in Pensacola, ScubaShack and MBT Divers. Hope they are okay.
