Steve,
That is quite an animated post.
I don't know what (if anything) you are doing to piss off captains here in Hawaii, but I have NEVER had a problem here. Rather than making blanket statements about Hawaii not being rebreather friendly, why don't you list the shops and boats that you have had problems with so that no one else will give them their business?
If anyone would like a list of shops and boats that are rebreather friendly in Hawaii, please let me know and I'll try to put one together.
Aloha,
Charlie
