Dove with Fifi in May for one day and had to come back for more. What I had liked during my May visit was the "no cattle boat" promise on the web site that was fulfilled during the one day trip in May. In February 2006 it was a different story. On two occasions, there were 26 divers (not including crew) on one boat! It was a cattle boat to say the least. I asked Fifi about this and he replied that it would still be a good experience and better than his competitors. The crew was great at all times. Very professional and friendly. The dives were overall very good with an abundance of sharks and Eagle rays seen. The space aboard the boat was horrible. It was difficult to move and gear up on the crowded boat days (3 out of 5 days) where the number of divers exceeded 25. There was no mention of taking out the second Cat just sitting there waiting to be used. Fifi was also not aboard on any of the trips during this visit. |
