| good and valid comments, hence the reason I/we book with Breakwater because it makes life a lot easier for the organiser (ie me)
as for booking other boats in other areas, I use either shared knowledge of other people to help out, such as diving St Abbs & The Farnes as we (a group of 6) did last year, knowledge that tells of good and bad skippers/boats
the other thing I would add is that I do book weekends up well in advance (3/4 months or more) if I want a weekends diving with a good and busy boat, I tend to find that the better they are, the busier they are, although if theres only 2 of you sometimes you can jump on someones weekend if they have chartered but not filled the boat up
the phone is still the best means of comms even in this day and age
