Comments	Great boat with clean & comfortable accomodations, gourmet food and extremely helpful & friendly crew. This is a fast boat that make the run up to Osprey Reef on every trip. This offers much better sites than the GBR. While you cannot totally dive your own profile the crew makes every effort to accomodate everyones' interests. This boat is more expensive than others in the area but worth the difference. The atmosphere is more like being on a private yatch than a dive boat. Plan on spending at least one night in Port Douglas. Don't miss George the Grouper at 'On the Inlet' restaraunt around 5:30 every afternoon.
