I was on the Damai this summer on a trip to Alor. It is somewhat more expensive than average, but I think it's a pretty good value. When you are comparing the cost of trips on other boats, you really need to add in nitrox, sodas, beer and wine, fuel surcharges and all the other costs that can add 10 to 20% to the cost of a trip. With Damai, it is all included. In addition, with Damai, there will only be seven other divers on the boat. To me, that is a huge plus. There are things about the Damai that are less than perfect, but, on the whole, it's a great boat to which I would gladly return.
