Comments I found out for sure I much prefer reefs to wrecks but thought I should check out Truk Lagoon at least once.The Odyssey was a good way to see the wrecks in comfort & safety.The only problem I had was a mold/mildew smell in my cabin...otherwise all was good.Visibility was not good all week.Did guided tours of each wreck...some had more to see than others both inside & out.The diver elevator was a unique feature to lift divers back on the boat...wish all liveaboards had one.From all accounts the ships/wrecks are losing their battle with the sea...We did spend a night before & after Odyssey at the Blue Lagoon Resort which has a pretty location but is very run down at present.
