Komodo Liveaboard - May - Recommendations?

[ScubaKay]

Hello,

I'm looking for a recommendation for a liveaboard in Komodo. I'm on a mid-life student's budget -- so not a bare-bones backpacker boat packed sardines -- and not a luxury spending-the-kids-inheritance-yacht either. Something in the lower-to-middle end. I'm looking to go in May - very flexible on dates -- so any last minute specials would be great!

If you've been and can recommend a boat, I'd appreciate your advice!

Cheers, Kay

p.s. Please...I would prefer the advice of end consumers, not sales people/travel agency solicitations.

Thanks!

Check with Grand Komodo, although we haven't used them, many people have and are usually happy. Check Undercurrent for reviews. Here's the link to Grand Komodo: Grand Komodo Liveaboard Diving Schedules, Prices, and Booking

We've been aboard a Grand Komodo boat ... no flash and glitter, no gold plate, but a very solid, dependable operation. Food was decent, guides were very good, cabin had AC and hot water. I can recommend them to others.

ScubaKay, I replied to your request in another thread, I'm certain. If you PM me your dates, I can check for availability and pricing on a couple of budget boats for you.
