- While I was thrilled to find that a guy at Don Foster's who was able
- to repair my dive computer on the spot (the ONLY person on the island at

- say over-dove?), and had to deal with (in our opinion) ridiculous,

- strictly limited dive-time at Stingray City EVEN THOUGH IT'S ONLY
- 12 FEET DEEP, etc.).
