Comments	Outstanding dive operation on a solid boat (same layout as Mike Ball's Spoilsport). Everything runs like clockwork, but with a smile. Best of central Bahamas diving with all the usual suspects. Iguanas, pigs on the beach, and snorkeling in Thunderball grotto thrown in to give the staff a break. Snorkeling for lobster offered for those who would skip a dive. Shark feed with small reef sharks, a blue hole dive, and a couple of dives riding the tide through gaps in the reef. Best part of the trip is the staff, who work tirelessly to ensure that guests have a great time. If you want to go on a night dive and nobody else wants to go, one of the divemasters will gear up. They quickly assess divers skill level and gently assist as appropriate. If you have your act together, you are on your own. All dives are from the back of the main boat. Dive deck is well-equipped. Camera table, compressed air, electrical outlets, etc. Cabins large and en suite. Hot showers on the dive deck--always a plus! Food is outstanding and plentiful. Kudos to the chefs. Having been on a number of liveaboards around the globe, I can easily say this is one of the best run boats I've ever been on. Would return for that reason alone. There were several repeat customers on our trip who echoed that sentiment.
