Just
returned
from
the
Keys
with
Billy
Carvallo
of
Mac's
Sports
Tarpon
Springs/Billy's
Underwater
Adventures,
diving
with
Conch
Republic,
staying
with
Ocean
Point
Resort.
The
trip
was
amazing,
Billy's
trips
are
special
because
he
has
a
relationship
with
every
single
one
of
his
divers,
he
understands
where
they
are
skill
wise,
what
they
need,
and
what
they
want.
He
always
cooks
a
fabulous
welcome
meal
the
first
night
with
a
dive
brief,
where
we
have
an
opportunity
to
socialize;
meet
new
divers
and
re-ignite
our
dive
friendships.
He
listens
to
us,
he
laughs
with
us,
and
he
develops
us
into
the
best
divers
we
can
be.
What
he
has
accomplished
is
simply
amazing,
he
has
created
a
"dive
family"
most
of
us
go
on
trips
we
wouldn't
or
couldn't
normally
go
on
simply
because
of
the
other
people
he
has
going.
Billy
picks
up
the
phone
and
personally
calls
each
student
to
invite
us
on
his
trips
and
he
tells
us
who
else
is
going.
This
creates
an
incentive.
I
wasn't
planning
to
go
to
the
Keys
this
trip,
but
I
changed
my
mind
last
minute
because
of
the
people
that
were
going.
We
had
such
a
great
time
diving,
eating,
laughing,
and
talking
about
scuba
diving.
I
dive
with
several
dive
shops/groups
in
the
Tampa/St.Pete
area,
and
no
one
has
been
able
to
do
what
Billy
has
done
with
his
students.
I've
never
seen
a
person
work
as
hard
as
Billy
does
to
run
his
store
and
work
with
his
divers
on
his
trips.
We
all
appreciate
Billy
so
much
for
what
he
does
and
what
he
delivers
to
us.
