We board the boat after 7:00pm, Friday night (please note this new schedule, due to leap year), August 16th. The boat leaves the dock at 5:00am while we sleep. We wake up to the smell of fresh coffee and are served a full hot breakfast. We start diving around 8:00am. We average 6 dives a days, diving on Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday (2-3 dives), and return to the docks on Tuesday the 19th around 3:00pm.
