    El Galleon for non diver (ish)

    I’m heading to puerto galera in Feb with my wife. Thinking about booking El Galleon (I was going back and forth between that and scandi divers). My wife dives but isn’t as fanatical as me so she’ll probably want to hang around the resort some times while I dive. Is el galleon a good choice for that?

    Anyone have experience with the fiber optic adapter that comes with the PT-059? It seems like some of the flash still comes through and would light up backscatter so I’m wondering if I should get something like the AOI adapter found here AOI FCA-01 Fiber Optical Cable Adapter for TG-3, TG-4...

    Are all consoles created equal?

    I'm wondering if consoles are a standard size.. Reason I'm asking is a got a console used as part of a reg package but I don't need the computer/compass part of it just the spg.
