I remember M/V Sea Fever, but I can't seem to find anything on them.

Any other liveaboards do anything like this?
 
The Juliet?
 

Thanks Mark, I have know Jim for years, as I grew up in Palm Beach and my Mom and Dad were dive instructors for many years. I did show my bride his trips, and she is more of a rec diver(100 dives) -vs- more specific shark diving, and voted down diving with Jim. It is an awesome boat and operation though.

Thanks, nice boat.

I think I should qualify a little more. Our thoughts were to get to Miami/Fort Lauderdale easily by driving/flying, and hope a boat to the Bahamas. Right now the only reasonable flights are to Nassau, so AquaCat seems the only option, and I will looking for a little more out of the way.

The times we can go diving, Juliet is in TCI.

If you are driving, you come to West Palm ( Jim Abernethy Scuba Adventures), long before Miami/fort Lauderdale. Drive from West Palm Beach International Airport, to Abernethy liveaboard, is about 15 minutes.
 
Wait for a little while. A new boat may be joining that market soon.... :D

I did the Sea Fever with owner/Captain Tommy Gaurino a vouple times out of Miami to the Exumas and also twice to the Cay Sal Banks. Fast 3 screw boat. I haven't even heard of the boat in over 10 years.

Sold to a treasure hunter from Boston, renamed Son Worshipper. I haven’t heard anything about her in 15 years. They were working in the DR.
 
Do you know of any liveaboards currently going to Cay Sal Banks?
 
No. It's too hard/expensive to get there if following new Bahamian laws.
