I did a trip with Blackbeards the week before T.C. It was a trip to move Diadema (spiny sea urchins) back onto reefs where the had died out. Bruce Purdy was aboard for this trip and supervised the capture and placement of the urchins. No one was forced to do this or to clean the coral heads prior to transplanting the urchins. There wasn't anyone on board that didn't help out. It was great to Bruce on board as he has exceptional knowledge about the reefs in the Bahamas in general and the Diadema in particular. On my trip, I was on the Sea Explorer with Capt. Tom. The whole crew was outstanding and extremely helpful. The only downside to the trip was the weather. We had fairly heavy winds and rain, but it never interfered with the diving or the fun. I agree with what T.C. said. If you go once you'll be hooked. I know I definitely want to go back.
