Well you did ask, it was:-
Quite a big outfit by all accounts, maybe they just had a off day
We did take some photo's on the boat at the time because we did not think people would believe us. May be if Lord Khram starts his 'name & shame' thread I will post them up.![]()
I am surprised.
I had some other shops on my mind but not the one you referred to in your post.
I like to think any dive-boat operator every now and then will have a "bad day" and I do believe that most boat operators will try to deliver everything that they promise their clients.
Sometimes things do go (unintentionally) wrong, even on the best boats, with the best management and best crew available. It is of-course important that lessons are learned from "bad days" and that they do not keep happening over and over again.
I do not hope anyone will start a "name & shame" thread. That will likely become a witch hunt and reflect badly on the Thai diving industry as a whole.
Anyone having a seriously bad experience on a dive tour should rather contact the shop's management and make a formal complaint immediately after their trip. I don't think clients will be ridiculed by shop management if they have a valid complaint.
