Comments	The ship had just got out of dry dock, unfortunately it wasn’t ready. Inadequate air conditioning, understaffed crew, no spare scuba equipment. Internet was $100, and not worth it. The worst part was Captain Hernan. He was rude,arrogant and dismissive of reasonable complaints. He didn’t help the crew with dive operations and rarely addressed the guests. It turned out some of the crew weren’t paid. Dive sites were just adequate and repetitive. It seemed there was a communication problem between sea creatures dive shop ,the captain, crew and home office. Would hesitate to book with them again. The interior and exterior crew was excellent, but understaffed and overworked
