A diver on a June 2015 Wind Dancer trip ( Cocos Island, Costa Rica ) has reported being told by the WD Cruise Director that an Okeanos Aggressor guest died recently during a dive. This information appeared in a larger article about the Aggressor fleet by Vanessa Richardson posted on another forum

Carlos, the cruise director, started the meet-and-greet aboard by informing guests about a death on the Okeanos Aggressor the week before (a diver at the Manuelito's Deep site got caught in the surge and was pulled under the boat; his body was found 80 hours later, in an underwater cave).

This is all the information on the fatality included in the article. No date is given for the date of the fatality, or for the date of the poster's trip, so I have approximated the incident date as "~ June 2015". Posting because I could not find mention of this accident in this forum.

Edit: Most refer to this dive site as Manuelita, not Manuelito.
