I dived it

VIP ONE,

I did a weeks liveaboard in May 02. I was very impressed. The only time I have done the Red Sea. So no comparison. I was upgraded by Tony Backhurst - I loved it. Clean, spacious, well maintained, en suite. No real complaints. Good food no squits. Extremely attentive crew - one de kits you another passes you towels and tea. Did 20 dives out of Sharm. Thitlegorm, Tiran etc. An older boat but the crew think they are a VIP boat so go the extra mile.

What do you want to know? Have pics.

Neill
