anyone thinking on going on tha mv snapdragon should think again the boat is in dire need of work.
the water leeks in through the light fittings in cabin no 5 right over your bed and down the exterior walls suggesting the port holes are not sealed i was not alone some other cabins had problems as well.
the passage way carpet is always wet ,the toilets back up after only being at sea for two days ,no wonder the rooms have insense sticks burning in them,as for the life rafts tied down with no way of releasing them.its a shame all of these things and more are easy fix things and we were told the boat had just come from dry dock from a refit pah.

I second Fiona on the Tony Backhurst.

I did the deep south in september and we flew into and sailed from Marsa Alam. It was (if I remember rightly) still a good 7 hour sail to get down to places like Fury Shoal etc etc.

But well workth it.
