Comments	The dive boat was excellent as was the staff. The practice of dropping divers at sites and returning was unnerving to beginners and some experienced. We surfaced after 45 minutes to drift for 10 minutes in 3-4 foot swell. This was due to cutbacks with one boat servicing two resorts. This, in my opinion, is a poor practice as any diving/health incident would escalate with no means of evacuation.
