Comments	We did 9 dives with Big Island.We went with several different DM's and Capts.All were very personable and professional.The boats were more than adequate.They took charge of our equipment after the first dive day and cared for it appropriately.Highlights for me,were the night manta dive and the 3 tank extended range dive to the south.I suppose some might have problems with the night manta dive(swarms of divers,snorkelers and multiple dive boats),but,I will never forget 6-8 mantas performing their acrobatics in my view at one time.It was surreal.The 3 tank dive was beautiful.BID's is an excellent ooperation.I have no complaints.
