Olympus Liveaboards

[bankey]

Just a quick question. Has anyone went on one of the Olympus liveaboard trips? This makes the third season my wife and I have been diving in NC, and we signed up for the liveabord at the end of May to see some of the less visited wrecks. Are there any tips of what to bring? Mainly things you wouldnt think of unless you have been on one of these trips. I think we pretty much have the basics covered. Just looking for some input. Thanks!

Lots of seasick pills and a fishing rod.

The trip we're doing is May 23-25. It's $475pp. That includes air fills,food, and bunkhouse Sunday night. Ten dives two of which are night dives. If you don't mind spending two nights on a boat in a sleeping bag it's a pretty good deal

The dives there are more than worth that small inconvienience.

How restrictive are they? ie. can you use your own 120 etc. do they have capability to fill on board?

The air fills are included in the price, and they fill on board. I'm not for sure if there is a higher price for filling 120's, we're diving 100's, but I'd say no. Another nice thing I know about it for sure is the group size is limited to around ten divers I believe.
