The rich and educated have looked down their noses at the uneducated poor since the beginning of time. I relate to the poor's mindset when it comes to corrupt governments who would allow wrecks to stay untouched for centuries, and sign UNESCO agreements that benefit no one. The poor see it as a way to be industrious and make a living. Survival is innate in us, and if we have to disregard the gov'ts silly rules to do so, then so be it. It would be better for the rich and political to use their resources to benefit the poor rather than make laws that turn their industrious spirit into criminal activity. Work with them. Don't work against them. I do wish they would pick up their garbage, though.
No offence intended with the video, I just thought it might be interesting to some, it is no secret here in Cabarete, in the past they were selling the stuff right out of their boats together with the fish they caught.
I work with them, lend them my tanks, my air...

The boys have their secrets and "golden" dreams, and I understand that but my curiosity overruns common sense.
Anyway, to keep things low key I dive early, sunrise and enter and exit incognito, maybe 1 dive out of 10 somebody spots me.
