i am upset with your experience(s) w/ unique watersports
EMMITT, (and i do not know his last name) is a real professional and a true gentleman. he is the owner of the company.

i would suggest emailing emmitt (i do not have his email), and tell him exactly what you told us transpired on your scuba experience with his company.

i too am a lifeguard (well a lifeguard training instructor and water safety instructor and trainer red cross) so i can really relate to your concerns about safety.

my husband, son and i have logged over 70 dives with unique.
we have never had an issue or a concern.

if someone has unique's email, please post.

And, I plan to call American Express and talk to them about holding payment. Money usually talks and if more of us would stand up for what is right people will eventually listen.

Did I mention that my husband had to find the first aid box to bandage my cuts - we won't even go into the bloodborn pathogen situation (We are also lifeguards and he is an MRT with the Fire dept. )

I loved Aruba and will definitelly go back but will think twice about diving.
