I have made many dives but have only one liveaboard experience and that was on Blackbeard's when I was a new diver. I am planning a trip to Belize and read Drrich2's excellent review of the Belize Sundancer. Makes me want vacation time to come faster.
I do have a question concerning storage of bags. The Sundancer/Aggressor fleet recommends soft luggage which is no problem for my clothes and other essentials, but we all know that dive gear is heavy and expensive. it requires sturdy, wheeled luggage. I remember on Blackbeard's we kept rolling bags in a storage building on the dock (this was when they sailed from Miami). My question is, where are dive bags kept on the Sundance/Aggressor out of Belize?
My other question is about the food. I am a gluten cripple--for real, got all the tests to prove it. Does anyone have any experience with special diets aboard liveaboards (in my case, it's gluten-free)? I read the menu and it looks like it will be limiting for me and no desserts. I know they take requests but did anyone actually dine with people who had dietary restrictions?
Thanks for your input.
