New to trying to attend a SB group trip and have a few questions…..once registration opens up, it’s understood an email is sent to scubaboard@maduro.com with the required information. After that point,
  1. How does actual booking & deposit occur? (e.g., who reaches out? Via phone or email?)
  2. Do these events generally fill up first day? If yes, is the ‘time stamp’ on the email the deciding factor on who is approved?
  3. Trip insurance is ‘strongly recommended’ is that also offered via whomever does the actual booking for the resort? i.e., Maduro dive can provide an online quote link for primary trip and travel protection doesprimary trip” = the resort/dive package or what does “primary trip and travel protection” include? (Not worried about flights we always make sure they are refundable or eligible for future flight credit at a minimum…and travel 2-4x/year so never have an issue using it.)
Thank you!

Question answers
1. Maduro will reach out to you in the order emails come in for deposits.
2. That has happened and that is why the time stamp is used.
3, Maduro offers trip insurance and airfare quotes or you can use whoever you choose.

The reason we encourage Crew Members to get insurance is because you never know what life may throw at you.
 
We are definitely all 4 of us interested in joining the Belize adventure.
I for one am on board for doing this Blue Hole add-on.
I know that it is probably one of those once and done, been there, done that, type of dives, but i think its probably well worth doing it that once, just to experience it.

Hopefully we are the first boat to arrive, and get to see the sharks rumored to be there until the crowds drive them deeper or away.
When the BH was an @3 hour boat ride away from Hamanasi Resort, 1 way, I passed, but I think I can not pass on this short, only @1/2 hour trip!
Im so excited for this trip!!! So glad Scubaboard has this! I am definitely going❤️

It's so cool to do a bucket list trip with FRIENDS. That the friends are ScubaBoardians makes it even better! Yah, I really can't wait either. Thanks to @ROXANNE and @cardzard for making it happen! Woot!!!
 
Billy and I will be there. We will be doing the add on for the BH, but I'm pretty sure I will just be floating around the top, no real interest in the deep dark cavern. The other 2 dive sites I hear are fantastic!
I’ll be so excited to y’all 🧜‍♀️ Hope Daniel & Mary from Texas are going? ❤️
