WATER TAXI SERVICE?

Post by Burntchef »

did 2 dives at eup today with pez. both were great and we saw some of the biggest ling ever. so as we were swimming out on the second dive and feeling the burn i came up with a great, stupid, perfect, idea, A WATER TAXI SERVICE couldnt you imagine a few divers with some gavin dpvs towing you out to the edge of the park for a small fee. i could and it sounds great. at the end of your dive you float a signal tube with there logo, they come and snatch you up and before you know it your back on the beach. i know i would pay a good $10 to $15 per trip .

so what do you all think? brilliant? stupid? one big fat dream?

Well, because I was there with you Howard, I can respond to this. GREAT IDEA!! So comon everyone, many people won't dive the park becuase of the surface swim. Could we make enough to support our Habit? :partyman:

I watched someone with a DPV try to 'tow' another diver, it was the most humorous thing I had seen in a while... One person ran the DPV the other held onto his feet.... Oh memories.... :toimonster:

I knew it was a joke, but as you can see, it does happen!
