Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“Sea lions in the Sea of Cortez. The captain and crew were fantastic. My bag containing my dive gear was left at Heathrow by American Airlines but the crew and other guests rallied to ensure I had enough gear to continue with the trip. The captain even loaned me his own wetsuit. Fantastic trip.”
