I just got back last weekend from NZ and dove w/ Dive! Tutukaka.
They're a decent operator that won't baby you around and there were 6
of us paying divers (+DM and skipper). They have 5 boats so they say
they can switch boats, etc if more people come along. It's a
'commercial' operation with dive shop and T-shirts (vs the other
operators running out of their home/boat). Note that they are the only
operator that sails every day which was key for us. In the winter time
the other operators go only once a week, if that, or if you have
enough people/$. Based on my last experience I'd dive with D!T again.

There is a new skipper that should be showing up in Tutukaka around
now, Simon with a big converted ferry boat. He should be significantly
cheaper but his boat is slow, I am guessing 2 hrs to Poor Knights
(everyone else is 1hr).
