Comments	The only "bad" on this boat was that the diving was not very challenging; Belize is not the Galapagos Islands. Having said that, the diving was fun . . . five dives a day were offered and most of us couldn't do that . . . we needed more surface interval time; but I got a lot of 60+ minute dives at a decent depth. The Blue Hole was fantastic . . . and Silver Caves had a lot of shark traffic. Most of the sites had decent walls and a good amount of life on the reefs. Not a lot of eels, crabs, lobsters or octopi; but there were good amounts of Angelfishes, Damselfishes, Hamlets, Tarpon, etc. We saw sharks at one site only; occasional turtles, Eagle Rays and Sting Rays. Food and accommodations on board were excellent; drinks & snacks were available 24 hours; crew was available any time; AC and hot water were plentiful. NITROX was available; cylinders were refilled shortly after each dive and measures were in place to insure the right gas; top-offs were available if needed. Safety was paramount . . . crew took care of divers unable to carry equipment; assisted divers in/out of water; recorded everyone in/out of water. The crew was proactive in arranging land tours on return to Belize City; very service-oriented. The Aggressor Fleet has a real winner here, thanks mostly to Capt Marc and his first class crew.

UW Photo Comments	Super table for photo equipment, except some divers found it convenient to use for non-photo items. Divers respected water bath for cameras; crew handled equipment responsibly. Crew well informed about UW photography; PC available for diver use; separate "dark room" for crew to process trip photos & video. Crew provided CD with photos for free and DVD for $$$; both very professional.
