BM-> As far as being spartan, I had one of my students mention about the
 BM-> showering aspect and tight quarters. Wasn't aware the quarters
 BM-> were crusty with salt, but I am not hard to please. I've slept in a
 BM-> few odd places before, and never had it bother me. You get what you
 BM-> pay for.  In this case, i'll be satisfied diving to my heart's
 BM-> content.
That's all I really ask for on a live-aboard, just give me all the dives I 
an
get.  I've found that generally by the end of the day I'm somewhat tired from
diving and that's the best.  I'll be curious to hear of your adventure and I
don't think you'll have a bad time.
