Greetings -
I accidentally ran across info about this boat, the Bianca, operating in Indonesia, then Googled it and found this ...
http://www.sumakai.com/home.htm
Couldn't find one mention of it in a search of Scubaboard. Does anyone know if this boat is active? Anyone ever been aboard? Just looking for any info to file away as a possibility for a future trip ...
Thanks!

Its not active as far as i know. Its sits in Lembeh Strait along with their other boat, hasn't moved since i have been here, which is since October.
Still look maintained though, nice looking boat from what i can see driving past it.

Mike,
Thanks for the reply ... mystery solved ... though I would rather have heard she was active and cruising to some great dive spots!

Glad to see your boats are operational now. Please post here again when you have a season's worth of positive reviews to share.
Your website says that extra optional dives are free. On a liveaboard, where the boat is often under way after the day's diving, how is this accomplished? We prefer four dives a day on a liveaboard.

It seems my reply wasn't posted.
You can contact me also on sumakai@euronet.nl
Locations are not far from eachother in this area and therefore we can offer multiple dives. if we cross to the Sangihe Talaud Islands we set sail after the last night dive and arrive at the next Island in the night/ early morning. Again mutiple dives are possible.
