I just asked a dive operator in T & C - Provodenciales about the safety equipment aboard their vessel. They responded in a curt fashion. The operator was obviously miffed with my question, "How impertinent was I to question their safety provisions?"
I find it unprofessional and unconscionable that many dive operators fail to clearly identify their safety gear, such a s O2, non-rebreather masks, first-aid kits, radios, GPS, Radar, epirbs, hanging bar, extra regs off the bar etc. on their web sites. I think this information should be placed front and center.
One would think identifying safety provisions would be a sales benefit for dive operators, act as reassurance for their potential customers and perhaps be a requirement for recognition by the major dive certification agencies.
Just my thoughts... for whatever that's worth.
