I had a conversation with a boat owner that we all know and love in Ventura, about the costs of running a trip.
10 divers will just about pay for the fuel, food and staff, for a day trip to the northern islands. This does not include slip fees, insurance, maintenance, and on and on.
Anyone who thinks the boat owners are in it for the money should go on a fact finding mission.
