Florida Liveaboards

[jmartz]

Hey, I'd love to know if anyone knows of or can recommend a live aboard boat in South Florida/The Keys. I am trying to put together a trip to Florida sometime in October/November and I'm looking for any suggestions. I want to do a long weekend trip, are there any smaller operations that do simple weekend dive trips where the guests just stay on the boat for the weekend? I like the idea of not having to go back and forth to a hotel to meet the boat each morning... one bill to pay at the end is also attractive and for me, much easier to budget.

If nothing like that exists, does anyone have any suggestions for what I could do over a long weekend. Say, arriving in Miami on Thursday morning and departing Miami on Monday night. It isn't much time, but it will be enough to get me away from work for a weekend.

Thanks in advance,
Jeff

Has anyone been out with Paradise Charters "Easy Goin" out of Ft. Lauderdale in the last couple of years? How was it? Would you recommend them?
