I'll add to the great operation of Mermaid. We went on Mermaid I for Komodo ~8yrs ago. Great staff/crew. Ive also been on this boat 2X in Raja Ampat (2018 last trip). My dive partner and I do every dive and extend them as long as we can stand it - I remember doing 80min after everyone else had gone in and I was alone with my guide,camera and 2 Mantas.
We are about to book a Komodo trip for May - but Mermaid is booked except the last week and I really want to be back in the USA by May 20 for a family event. I might just blow it off to do the Mermaid trip, but we are looking at the Tanaka for a 7D/6N leaving May 12. We would be the first to book this cruise, which seems odd to me since it is not that far away. Anyone have any experience with this boat? Its newer and gets some good reviews but I dont know anything (personal) about it.
