| Mark,
Just returned from a Norther trip on Blue Melody, I've been on Fin, and Horizon can fault them - excellent boats and crew. I'm going back South again in Sept 08 on Blue melody.
The weather can be windy but they provide blue dressing gowns to put on when you take your suit off on the dive deck.
Baz who runs the salon area is excellent! You shouldnt find a fault with Blue O two or any of their boats. The water tem was 21-22 deg c this Feb - I used a 5mm suit with hood for night dives - some had dry suits but not really required.
Dive bags - OK take one and keep regs/torch in hand luggage - on Fin they take your large dive bags and store them until the end of the trip so ensure you take everything out you want - if you have any burning questions ring Blue O two they will help or pm me.
