I am a PADI IDC staff instructor #189080, that not only has many Certifications completed with Amigos Del Mar as a Divemaster or instructor,, but also longtime friends with all involved.
I also know that PADI is very diligent in their cause and gives organizations like ADM ample opportunity to come into compliance to there minimum standards only after remediation of the problem prier to the expulsion, they want not only them as a member but their money for all those carts!
Go to there website and you will see that an organization with many thousands of members there are only a handfuls of expulsions.
There is some sort of difference of option going on, not sure what it is?
I have not talked to those involved but know that WAG's (Wild Ass Guesses) to what really is going on are only that!
PADI standards aren't meet at any Belize dive centers without a variance in my option if you read there instructor manual verbatim, so who knows!
PADI wants the most for there members, my friends at Amigo's Del Mar I am sure feel the same.
Just my option!
