Quad share quarters are a little cramped. Only toilets are ensuite which is inconvenient in a quad share. There are no others available. Unlimited hot water and plenty of pressure for showers though. Crew is friendly but some were new on this boat. Dive site diagrams for briefings were not highly accurate. Suggested dive plans were often not practical due to currents. Dive deck is well laid out and roomy. Easy entry and exit. Boat supplies computers for anyone without their own. Visibilty on the GBR was below expectations but marine life is healthy and plentiful in most places. |
