Yup I asked a Chinese officemate to help me navigate and I found this:

Yup, it's the Island Explorer. I googled "Island Explorer Scuba Philippines" and got this: :11:

<How do I embed links to pics??>
Look at attachment.

Looks like the Taiwanese page is old, and I need to find another boat.

Arrgh, why can't I embed pics and links??

 

[JasonC]

Anybody?

 

[Mike Veitch]

are you trying to link something from cyber diver? It won't let you.

And you shouldn't read that site anyways...

 

[JasonC]

No, the first few links here:

[Mike Veitch]

yep, that is Cyber Diver, also known as C DNN.

SB won't allow you to link from there

 

[JasonC]

Why not?

Anyway does anyone have any feedback about these guys:
http://www.expeditionfleet.com/

They can do a 4-days-of-diving trip to Apo and Coron for P35k if 12 divers minimum can go.

 

[Mike Veitch]

I don't have any feedback on the fleet other than they are the largest in PI.

As for C DNN, some issue in the past with this board and their unsavoury and sensationalistic and exceedingly biased agenda

They are the worst diving operation in the Philippines. Even the locals avoid them.
