Lida, Mark, Jos,I know this is late, particularly as I’ve done three separate wonderful trips on the Seven Seas – and have already signed up for more.The cabins, main dining room, and deck areas on the new boat are all wonderfully arranged. The dive deck and dive tenders are great, making it easy to handle and stow gear, and a pleasure to dive.You have a wonderful crew, all of whom are very professional, attentive, and a pleasure to be around. As an underwater photographer, I’ve also appreciated the care they’ve shown to me and my gear. What also impresses me is the careful attention to safety, seaworthiness and quality that has gone into the every aspect of the design and construction of this modern Phinisi schooner, and the focus on guest safety in all your dive operations and crew training. It’s not always easy to see this from the website or even a casual visit on board. But when it comes to extended voyages diving in rugged and remote parts of Eastern Indonesia, safety and safety consciousness become important considerations for me and for any friends or clients whom I might recommend to go on your boat. See you soon,Robert Delfs
