It was an amazing trip. I was on the Pirates Lady, Pancho was the skipper, Jeremy DM Dave engineer (absoluteely histerical), And If Brandy is your cook you will eat like royalty. The trip itself was a very nice one. We reached as far as Bimini were we ported, and actually got lucky and did two shark dives. The weather was obsolutely perfect during the day, we got lucky and it only really rained at night when we were traveling. I think my trip did something like 17 dives in all. If you sail to Bimini try and talk your skipper into the shark lab on South Bimini, very cool experience. Viz was pretty good up until Wednesday, when it dropped to about 20-25 feet at most. One piece of advice, dont blam the crew if the diving is bad, we actually had planned on making a 75-90 ft dive on wednesday morning, the DM splashed got down to ten feet from the wreck and could not see it, so we aborted the site and drove about two miles up to a slightly better viz. DONT TAKE ALOT OF CLOTHES, trust me, you only 3-4 swim suits, 2-3 t-shirts (I used one all week for topside, one for below deck, and one for port night and the trip home), sunscreen needed. Bring dive lights, something to read, c-card all that crap, money for tips and crap. Anyway, yeah so it was a greattime.
