Comments	Great boat and crew. This boat was formally the Sky Dancer. This is my third trip to the Galapagos and it was just as good as before. We saw lots of whale sharks, hammerhead sharks, silky sharks, Galapagos sharks, white tip sharks, turtles, eagle rays, sea lions & marine iguanas. We also saw Mola Mola and the red lipped batfish. The crew was outstanding. My only complaint was that the water pressure in all the cabin showers was very poor to non existent at times. We told the crew about this and hopefully they will correct it.
