Polynesia Master

Does anyone have any feedback they can share on this boat?
Also, I see if I do not have an AOW cert- I can only go to 85'- would this be an issue for the dive area?

It has been a long time ... but I have been to Rangiroa land based. They treated PADI certified divers as lesser divers than NAUI at the time. So a PADI diver would need AOW to go below 85', but a NAUI diver would only need the basic certification.

The diving was great. The best dives were through the cuts with the tide coming in (they would not let you dive the cuts with the tide going out). Very strong current, lots of sharks. There were times when it would be preferred to go deep to get so you get get to schooling sharks that wanted to stay in deeper/colder water - however, if they limit you to 85' it will still be great diving!

There is a thread on the fourth page of these listings with reviews of that boat. Last posting was about a year ago. I'll try and post a link to the thread.

BTW, the search function on this website is your friend.
Anyone got info on the French Polynesia Master liveaboard, launching 2016?
