Has anyone looked into the protocols Sundiver Express had in place for checking divers back onto the boat? I've been on a few dive trips myself, and it's really shocking that Laurel wasn't on the passenger list or accounted for after the dive. I've always felt that headcounts are crucial, especially on commercial trips. It’s unsettling to think of how many things might have gone wrong that day. I know there was a lawsuit and some consequences for the captain, but I wonder if there were any changes made to their safety procedures afterward? It's distressing to think this isn't the first time they've left someone behind.

Anyone else find it strange that Laurel wasn't even listed on the passenger roster the day she went missing? Given her experience and regular status aboard the Sundiver Express, this omission seems odd. How do you miss adding someone who's practically a crew member to the list? And from what I've read, this wasn't Sundiver's first slip-up with leaving divers behind. I'm all for accounting errors being just mistakes, but this feels like a safety issue that's been ongoing. I wonder if other regular divers had similar experiences or if she was somehow singled out. It's hard not to think that a system keeping better track of divers could have changed the outcome that day. Safety first, people!
