What type of Dive Boat do you prefer?

[pakman]

wahahaha! nice!

I'll give you a ride, once I take it out for a test run...

100 ton barge or larger with two full dive spreads and a DDC, or any boat with a low, flat work deck with easy access off the side away from the props.

I don't mind the bangkas, but I don't really care for the 4'-5' backroll...

Jenn, when they are properly designed, the drop isn't that high...

while we were on Malapascua last weekend, I commissioned this kid to make this kickass dive bangka... :mooner:

edit: the box on the back is for mounting a 400hp 4stroke outboard...

This bangka is a babe magnet Seriously, can you imagine hauling your gear in that thing..

Maybe I'm remembering incorrectly, but when I was in Dumaguete, it seemed like quite a distance...I got used to it, but it was a little unnerving at first.

I prefer a nice skiff...or a luxury yacht

I like bigger boats! Small boats are awesome if they have adequate protection from the elements, or it's just nice and hot out!

However I prefer the larger boats like Gary's 46' Newton! Put 10 divers on a Newton, and it's heaven. Even 20 is comfortable.

giant stride instead of backroll for the bigger bangkas.
