Customer review from Liveaboard.com

“Incredible Adventure with a Fantastic Crew. Outstanding attention to detail and fantastic service. Great meals, cleanliness. When launching or bringing in divers the entire crew - cooks to mechanics to dive masters - leap to assist divers off w their gear and suits. The cabins are very nice, thoughtful and modern; AC works great. Only input would be that it might be time to replace older rental suits and BC’s.”

Recommended for: The Crew. The Diving. The Boat.
