I heard from my source that Aggressor is only offering vouchers for trips they decide to cancel. Every other situation is handled per their existing cancellation policy.

I finally heard from them again today. Better news this time. They had no choice but to cancel my trip on the Kona aggressor due to the fact that the Governor or Hawaii basically just closed down Hawaii, but putting in a mandatory 2 week quarantine for anyone flying in and taking away boat operator licences so no tourist type boats can go to sea.
They gave me a voucher good for 1 year.
I have the feeling the status (Operational) on

I was supposed to go on a Carpe Diem LOB in March and it got cancelled and they very simply rescheduled me for another trip in January (I chose January). No problem either with Bandos Resort who rebooked my stay to work with my new itinerary.
Also, big THANKS to my travel agent, Mike, at Reef and Rainforest who got all this done. He was proactive and got everything done with little effort on my part except to say the new dates would work for me. That was all I had to do. All this while I bet he had travelers stuck outside the US trying to get home and many other customer to help with urgent problems.

Booked the MS Royal Evolution May 28 trip through Dive The World. By March 20 it was clear to me the whole world is going into lockdown and travel between countries is tricky if even possible. Don't want to pay the balance and risk not able to go at the last minute, I request either cancellation or reschedule through Dive The World. Of course it is up to the operator but Dive The World was acting as the go-in-between. It took a few e-mails of convincing, at the end they agree to a reschedule to another date (2021).

Just spoke to Barbara and Kevin at Allstar Liveaboards and while they have not cancelled the trip, they are offering a full future rebooking credit if customers want that option for this trip.
As of today, the Bahama's are set to reopen May 31
Health Alert - U.S. Embassy Nassau, The Bahamas | U.S. Embassy in The Bahamas
But it looks like the major airlines are cancelling flights through June, and Atlantis and Baha Mar are both closed through June.
BIG shout-out to Allstar for their kindness, flexibility and response to this situation.

Whatever company produces "good for 1 year" vouchers for Aggressor has a consistent source of income.
