...and another update, in the interest of fairness.
A couple, that we often dive with on liveaboard trips and trust implicitly, returned from the KA2 last month. They had been with us on the "trip from hell" last year, and warily returned solely because of the proximity of Kona (children went with them this time).
In a word, they passed on that the KA2 experience was superb. With the exception of Robert, the entire crew is new. By all reports, the entire crew was cheerful and helpful, and they had a great time. Totally no stress.
John did report that the boat really, really needs a trip into drydock for a major, though.
All the best, James
