Comments	Have dived with West Side Scuba four times in past five years. Originally a well run operation, going to some nice dive spots, but they only have one boat. I have the impression the owner isn't reinvesting, and the DMs seem not quite as good as formerly. Last two visits my rental BCs were shopworn, and this time our group of five showed up, but didn't get to dive - the boat's engine wouldn't start, even after an hour battery charge. We wasted a morning. Will read further reviews carefully before diving with them again.
