used to fill last minute spaces or even your own cancellations.

Internet and fora dive clubs are fine, but unless you've dived with them
you can never be sure what they are like. At least this way you've been on
a boat with them already.

That is exactly what we've done, and it works. On our list we have five skippers and over 100 divers interested in doing similar stuff to us.
