Hey all,
My husband & are are heading to Thailand in Jan/Feb 2004. We're planning to go on a liveaboard and are looking for reviews/recommendations.
We're really fairly wide-open on the price - we have travelled very cheaply (6 months in Indonesia at $5/day) and very well (all-inclusives in Mexico and gourmet dining in Barbados). The thing that matters most to us is the diving. In particular, we're fairly good on air & don't like to have to come up when the first person is out - we like to stay down as long as possible. The other thing we're really interested in is life. Big, small, we don't care - but we like to know what it is. So, a good briefing, description of habits, and an understanding of what we might see is very important to us.
We're also looking for a longer trip - 9 days or more. We want to go to the Burma Banks and the Similans & Richelieu Rock (we'll probably get to Hin Daeng & Hin Muang from Phi Phi - we've been there before - thus far, Hin Muang takes the award for best dive we've ever been on).
I have read through the posts, but figured it might not hurt to ask for recommendations personally anyway.
TIA
