It was a bit rainy yesterday, and I was still a little sick. Sarah was able to get in another couple of dives and Elizabeth went as well. Hopefully today I'll be able to jump in and get in a dive or

We had a good day diving. Sarah logged two dives, but I was not able to do much with my cold, so I'll have to wait another day before diving. We had a strong storm last night that really slammed us

We finally made it to Misool, Raja Ampat. We are here in a beautiful location tied bow and stern to shore. It is 45m deep, so we can't feasibly anchor when the bay is only 100m across. I've been

We left the marina after one night so we can get back in the water with some diving and snorkeling. Sarah and I went for a snokel after arrving to the anchorage to find ourselves swimming with a

We left Sorong for Wasai. We arrived at the new Marina today and took on fuel. It was a luxury to be on a proper fuel dock and put triple filtered diesel directly into our tanks. We've not had

Well we've been VERY delinquent is our updates. Perhaps it is because we've not had much to report as we've been in the Sorong area now since Christmas. We've had a number of trips to the airport

We are beginning to wrap up our two week tour of diving with guests aboard. We burned through 17 dive bottles in two days, so we are diving a lot and everyone is amazed as the beauty of the dives

We continue to move around and explore Raja Ampat and the diving. The past two days we've had outstanding diving. We are now anchored in a mangrove in about 25m of water with a stern tied to shore

We had two excellent dives yesterday and had a blast taking lots of pictures. We'll post some soon on our FB page. The currents have settled some as we have not been seeing the ripping currents we

This new location is interesting. We are anchored in 34m of water, with ripping currents on either tide of 3-4 kts. However, the location is great for several very good dives up here in this

We are anchored off a small island with a couple of good dive sites. It is a busy place as we generally have 2-6 dive boats here diving with tourists aboard liveaboard boats. We are going to do 2-3

We arrived to Wasai after an overnight on the E side of "The Passage" a very tight channel (30m wide) that can have ripping 5kt currents. We were fortunate to have it timed close with only 1.5 knots

We are leaving our friends here at the Pearl Farm and the good diving to move towards Wasai. We did three dives yesterday, one a night dive, and it was a great day. Elizabeth did the night dive

It's been a great couple of days here at our new location. We are on a mooring ball here by the pearl farm in Raja Ampat. The people at the pearl farm are great. It is managed by two Australian

We continue our move slowly to the south, and are anchored in the beautiful little bay. We are stern tied to shore, and are enjoying this location. There are a number of good dive in this area, one

We moved around to the outside for better access to the four dive sites down here. It's a nice spot with a white sandy beach. We'll be here another couple of days before working our way south. All

Happy Thanksgiving! The interesting news is the m/v Octopus came into the area. It is a mega yacht owned by Paul Allen, the co-founder of Microsoft. There are 60 crew aboard, and they were the

Candidly, I was a little pessimistic about how good the diving would be up here in Wayag. We were VERY happy to find the diving here to be outstanding. There are not a lot of fish, but the coral

We had a great hike yesterday up the pinnacle to view Wayaga. It's beautiful. We will be doing some more drone footage and photos so we can post when we get internet. We plan on staying here
