Hi all,

Just did a comparison a few weeks back of diving rate packages between Kapalai and Sea Ventures and Borneo Divers and got a shock that Sea Ventures is now charging either the same rates or slighlty more than even Kapalai.

Very excessive in my humble opinion for a pretty run down facility.

Has it been upgraded over the past year or two that I am not aware of or are dive companies just taking advantage of the situation with the mass numbers of divers from mainland China to make a bigger profit?
 
Yup.....and hospitality there is also questionable these days

Not as good as it was before?
 
Especially the boat man

Yes, their equipment is old and has not been replaced in many many years. Not sure if they are actually spending $ on newer quality boats and also upgrading their rooms at the rig. Have not been out to their rig in 4 years so..not surprised. But their new rates are crazy.
