Hey all - I'm contemplating another liveaboard trip this fall, and wondering if anyone has been on both the MV Pawara and the Sawasdee Fasai - and can describe the difference. They seem to do the same itinerary, and I presume they're run somewhat similarly (since it's the same company, West Coast Divers). Sawasdee has a few more beds (26 instead of 20), and is a bit bigger (37M vs 35M) - and is about 15% more expensive. But if anyone's experienced both and can give me a sense for the differences/similarities (quarters, common-space, food, staff, operations, etc.) that'd be helpful. I went on the Pawara a couple years ago (thanks stevenl!) and thought it was great - so just curious whether I should try the "upgrade" or not.
Thanks!
Thanks!
