Nekton and St. Croix

I saw the thread from pseudocyber and his trip report which was very nice but comes from a "newbie" as he put it. Has anyone else done this trip? I did the Pilot a few years ago when it was in Belize and thought is great. I don't mind the boat, its the diving I'm not sure of. If it is "typical Caribbean diving" that is ok. The pricetag now is pretty good.

I would love the feedback before I make my decision.

there should be some trip reports coming in soon as there are quite a few SB members doing the St. Croix and the Mona Island itineraries this month.

I've done it.

If you get to the North side, then the diving is pretty good and more fish. If you don't then the diving is OK, but not so much variety.

It comes down to cost to get there. Most boats are around the same price or some manageable difference you pay to get better location. THe diff is in the cost to get there. If you save money traveling there then it's still worth it, if not, then you might as well go elsewhere and get better diving too.
