Yes, I dove with Ed Robinson when in Maui recently. The operation and
his staff were wonderful. Very knowledgeable and helpful, when needed. I
would not dive with anyone else were I returning to Maui.

I would. Mike Severns diving is right next to Ed Robinson at Kihei, and
offers the same quality and level of professionallism. I wouldn't
hesitate to dive with either of these operators. The only drawback
(such that it is), is that they don't like to take anyone with less
than 25 dives experience. This weeds out some of the truely clueless,
and let's them offer better sites and much more freedom than most of
the cattleboat operators out of Lahaina.

If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure.

Twelve divers max. Marine biologists as dive masters. Closer to most
of the dive spots (it's an "easy" 30 minute cruise from Lahaina to
Kihei).

The cattleboats won't do dives like Molokini Backside (which really
takes two dives to do properly). Columbus Day, 1992 we did Molokai.
Cattleboats weren't doing that one.

Severns (and I assume Robinson) let you dive your own profile. The
only restriction is to ascend as a buddy team. But at the experience
level of most of the divers I've run into on their boats, that's not
an issue.

What is nice about Molokini Backside?
