EXCELLENT!!! Thanks for that one...owe you a fun dive.

Ha! You know I'm holding you to your offer.







So here are some pics! Here's Liquid Assets:

Too bad the plants are blocking the numbers. :/

The boat is too big to get to shore so we had to take a little boat to get there.

Unfortunately I don't have a full picture of the boat, but here are sections of it:

From the very back of the boat to the front:

On the right is a "bathroom" on the left is the "kitchen"

From the mid to the front:

This is a little comparison - to sorta show how we dwarf the other bangkas:

Here's a pic of my family and I in the mid section from the landing:

There were 14 of us total. My mom and 3 cousins are not in the picture.

We had plenty of space to lounge around: :14:


Now check out this family and how much space they had :

Me and the legend himself, Buboy:

Man, going through these old pics makes me anxious to get back!

Chip, nice set of pics. I remember the boat was really big, built for safaris.

Norvin, here are Booboy Mancao's phone numbers:
Dive shop: 32-254-6359
Residence: 32-344-8434

Since your with a group, I'm sure Booboy will give you a discount and he's boat is pretty huge.
BTW, is flyingfish gonna be diving with you?

flyingfish is diving with us on january 5th, saturday, and hopefully, in bora, too. we'll probably dive around mactan twice, and once in either cabilao or panglao. thanks for the phone numbers, jun. maybe i can have flyingfish contact buboy.

jun, do you remember how much buboy was charging for two dives? we're probably thinking of doing hilutungan and nalusuan. thanks again.

does anyone have pictures of the boats that scubaworld use? flyingfish, didn't you go through them once? is their boat as big as buboy's or how is it compared to buboy's? thanks all!

 

[jigo]

nobody builds them as big as buboy's. he builds them himself. he builds and sells boats. buboy is very interesting. he dive only in speedos but wears a hood to keep warm. no wetsuit.

hahaha . hood to keep himself warm
norv, i gotta see that for myself. i'll get in touch with buboy in the next few days. incidentally, the scubaworld bangka was no slouch either. it was quite big. probably made by buboy mancao?

ok, en. thanks for checking buboy's prices. can you also ask him if his boat can pick us up from plantation bay? i was checking on padi's website, and it doesn't list buboy as padi certified. is he?
