Comments This is our 5th trip on the Juliet, so obviously we like the boat. Accommodations are not as fancy as an Aggressor type boat, but way up from Blackbeards. The boat is very well run and the crew is top notch. The meals, while not fancy are delicious (thank you Will). The Juliet sails out of Miami and has several destinations including the Bahamas.

That's the good news. Sadly, March 2014 is her last scheduled trip. Captain John, the owner, is taking her out of service for an extended period of time. Whether the Juliet will be used again as a dive boat is unknown. We've enjoyed our trips immensely and wish Captain John and the crew the best of luck.
