What happened? I have been in 10 different 1-2 week long liveaboards (excluding those 8-10 weekend trips to Flower Gardens, Dry Tortugas, Channel Islands, etc.). Aggressor II was the 2nd best experience I had after Mermaid I. December 24-3Q1, 2017 Palau Trip Report.

I was considering a oct 29 departure date but I was worried if my flight was late on oct 29 and I missed the boat, would it be possible to hire a boat to drop me off at the live board?
In regards to the palau aggressor, the issue I had was the captain. He didn’t really take us to great spots and lack of safety procedures wasn’t very comforting. He also had the chef fired from the boat 2 days in. He also was on his camera under the water the whole time and would leave he whole group behind to grab the best shot. Not a great dive leader I would say. At one point we lost 2 divers because even though he was supposed to watch the rear he went to the front. I sent a note to aggressor fleet but no reply from them. Others on the boat said the same thing.

FYI. Booked a trip on the Raja Ampat agressor because of the 35% off sale they had. Great deal and it was 32 dives. Cant complain. Gonna fly in at 630am and catch the shuttle to the boat immeditely. FLight a day later after return so would appreciate a place to stay in sorong until the next morning flight. Thanks!
