Comments Read about it in the 2017 Travelin' Diver's Chapbook on pages 42/699 and 43/699.The review was all it said it was and more. Lots of dives 3 to 4 a day plus night dive if you want, Kept the boat cleaned when the crew was not busy,very impressive, food was good and plenty, plenty of drinks,beer and other liquors. The dive masters were very informative on the dive prep, all sorts of creatures to look at, sharks,ray`s,ells, Lion Fish, which we killed and ate as civichie .
We had 3 regular divers on board plus 8 search and rescue guy`a from the special forces of the Air Force doing drills to keep up their ratings, They also free dived and speared lobster which we all feasted on, the weather and visibility was perfect! You can stay on the boat the night before you leave port instead of a hotel for only $50 bucks. We also dove a few wrecks which is what I like to do (I`m a wreck diver). It`s a 65 ft.ketch rigged for sailing so the room`s are tight but clean and comfortable. 2 showers and 2 heads. For more of a description go to their web site. Island Escape Tours.com is the Taxi service, $30 round trip from Nassau Airport.Tub for cameras and aft shower to rinse off.
