Looking for nicest boat in the Red Sea - anyone have suggestions?

[reefseeker2]

Like to go this year maybe in August. Never been to the Red Sea. I have been all over Indonesia last 23 years, time for a change. Not into old boats. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks
Carl

It probably belongs to MBS.

He's pulling your leg...Mohammed bin Salman...Crown Prince and Prime Minister of Saudi Arabia.

LOL Thanks, but I bet. he is right, has to be better than anyone I can book a trip on.

In all seriousness though, there are charter boats out of Jeddah that you could probably hire. That part of the Red Sea is mostly untouched as the Kingdom has only recently allowed tourism. Jeddah is a beautiful and lively city. If you go, you absolutely have to go to AL Baik for the chicken.

Just stay away from Chop Chop Square.

I have not been on so do not take it as recommendation but I would look into MY Blue • Red Sea Liveaboards

That boat is nicer than my apartment.

Wow...no kidding...not showing that boat to my gal. I hope she doesn't stumble across it.

...but on the other hand...

For as nice as that boat looks I'm really surprised at how cheap it is. It's not that much more than Blue O Two and still cheaper than Aggressor.
