Might want to get this fine print clarified before purchasing: Valid 2/22-27 & 3/22-27.

Has anyone here on the board ever been out with this charter company?

Interested.

Just wondering, what makes it valued at 100$? Most charter boats in the area charge anywhere from $50-$60 are they giving something extra or including anything else with it? :headscratch:

Air and weights are included - looks like a nice boat.
It says it expires in August, but also has "valid" dates associated (so that's def. something that needs clarification).

Regardless, $49 for a 2 tank dive (including weights/air - not nitrox) is worth exploring.

I'm going to check it out. I have "groupon-ed" both here and in Texas and haven't found a reason to complain so far. Usually end up trying something I wouldn't have tried otherwise, which makes life pretty darn fun.

ooh I didnt realize it included air, I just saw it saw "does not include equipment" in that case seems like a good deal def. I may check this out, although I have not heard of or seen the boat/company. I'm thinking of giving it a go

Yeah, she looks very sea worthy. Almost like a research vessel. Not sure about 20+ divers though. Good dig Rae.

I've not been out with the op but considered doing their Bimini Dive last month: it was a good price but I had to pass due to my work schedule. I talked to the captain several times and he seemed like a good guy and was quick to return my call to answer a question. This is a nice sized boat that does trips to the Bahamas and trips in the Gulf on a regular basis. I don't think the op spends a lot of time in SE Florida on local sites, so they must be trying to round out their schedule between the big trips.
