I was on this boat the last week of September into the first week of October. I did all the dives, 23 total. We had some issues on the boat. We couldn't use the toilets due to a pipe that was corroded. They tried to fix it with a fiberglass patch that didn't work. Spent the night in a hotel due to odor issues the first night. Second day a crew came in and welded in a new pipe. Yes this is an old boat.
The hired dive boats to take us out, while repairs were made.
We also had a different Captain since the previous Captain and Chief engineer (Wife, Captain, Engineer husband) left the boat.
Finally got off the dock and had a good week of diving. Don't miss the night dives and also did a dive at 6:30 in the morning.
Yes Nitrox is a must, there is no way to control the temp in the rooms, ours was freezing. food was good, crew was outstanding and the diving was terrific. Do all the dives so you get your Iron Diver award.
Even though there were issues with the boat, I will do another liveaboard. I think it's the best way to dive.
