    We would be there either next Thursday or Friday. Still a long line then? We have tanks if necessary, just trying to determine if we can avoid hauling them from Houston and just rent in the area.
    The water's more exciting with CHUM in it.

    I'd suggest Panama City Dive Charters run by Pat Green. They are open early in the morning due to boat trips. They bank 32% also.


    some of the other shops I've gotten very "undependable" fills. like 2200-2400psi in a 3442psi tank. Which is a REAL PAIN IN THE ASS to find out once you're on the boat headed out to a dive site.

    Some schools have a late Spring Break, and you could run into crowd issues. Thursday might be safe, but lots of folks like to take Friday off and go to the beach, so I would get there as early as possible.

    Yes indeed, since all three times the discussion was relevant to the same topic. Why does this concern you since all three times you had nothing positive to contribute?

    It doesnt concern me. Rather, I find it entertaining.
