A dive instructor here at Cayman Brac Beach Resort said that 2 new Newton dive boats are on order. He thought that one of them will be going to LCBR.

They had just taken delivery of a brand new 46' newton on LC when we were there in August.
Wow, there is nothing like that new boat smell! IMO, Reef divers runs the finest large operation in the Caribbean with great boats and staff. I look forward to lounging on the spacious bow between dives.
I suppose a shop could load it up with extras and the engine package is a big part too. But a 46 Newton splashed is in the 350K to 400K range USD. Used ones that size can go for ~$200K. I love their boats but hate their standard ladders, give it a christmas tree !!..I was told that the new boats "cost a half a million dollars each"....
