Comments The worry of hurricanes and bad weather was forgotten once underway.
The motor was noisy; so, hard to sleep during nites of motoring along. Weather was very good all week.
The only female divemaster (also she was purser) was Kelsey. She gave the V sign during a briefing to signify that if you ran out of air, she takes Visa or Mastercard. Then, on the 5th day, instead of writing the usual stuff on the slate for safety, etc., she wrote "blah, blah, blah." Then, the nite, we had turkey for dinner, she claimed they had to catch pelican that's why dinner took so long.
The most unusual stuff were very large sting ray, spotted ray and small critters. No sea horses were seen.
Food was usually very tasty.
The crew and divers were mostly very friendly and fun.
