Yes please, a report would great. I was in Ambon last year and did some great diving there. Next time I would combine with a LOB so I would like to hear about the boat you were on. Thanks, -Andy

check out our non-profit dive club trip at Bali Diving, SCUBA Dive Bali Indonesia with Kapal Selam Diving Club Bali <www.kapalselam.org>
we have incoming trips to R4 next year.. and also had done few before.
Don't know if our club will make another R4 trip next October 2008. But when I am done with mine in may 2008, hopefully I can share some info with you.

Cheers,
Acuan.

quick translation.... Raja Ampat is Indonesian for Four Kings, hence 4 Raja or 4R. There is a good write up on a trip on this boat here: http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/ge...-banda-sea-lob-archipelago-adventurer-ii.html

A number of the liveaboards are now doing Raja Empat to Banda/Ambon or operating out of Ambon that time of year two of the best operating here still are
Komodo Diving & Liveaboard Cruises - Raja Ampat, Banda Sea, Wakatobi & Fakfak SCUBA Adventures with Seven Seas Bali
Liveaboards Indonesia, Indonesia Liveaboards

There are of course few new liveaboards operating in Raja Empat now but I would guess they would not know he are anywhere near as well.
