Comments Due to weather we missed several dive opportunities mid-week to end of the trip. Captain tried to find some spots but we only got one dive on Thursday and none on Friday - the night dive Wednesday was cancelled as well (that was the only night dive I had planned on making and missed out) so lesson is do them when you can.

Really stinks that symptomatic divers were allowed to board. I hope they were cabinmates! I share your concern about no crew on deck when you surfaced.

No they weren't cabin mates thank goodness. Their symptoms didn't appear until second day of trip. Such is the virus. We've learned a lot about it since this time last year. Bahamas is still on the high risk list. Hope it is better next spring as we have a return trip on the Aqua Cat scheduled for early May.
