Jennifer Wistrom
We were hesitant to board a superior diving vessel, as these diving trips are for 8 days, and wondered if it was comfortable enough for over a week! The minute we stepped foot aboard, these worries were put to rest! the crew was outstanding and very helpful. The diving lived up to our expectations. Overall we wouldnt change a thing, thank you Ricky!
