Well there you have it.  I was hoping to find someone like you.  I will be
writing you with questions and when you have time maybe  you can share some
of your info.  I have never been before.  We are flying into Marsh Harbor
and renting a sail boat, which we will live off of.  A brand new adventure.
 I am also in class 3 of novice diving and am very excited and frantic and
really interested.  Thank you for answering and will be contacting you.
