Nautilus Explorer Liveaboard

I took the Nautilus Explorer to Socorro in November 2021. The crew was very good; however, I was not as impressed with the dive masters. They seemed to push the envelope and had us swimming against the current a lot. One dive master swam off and left half the group on one dive! A couple of the guest were very upset with the dive masters! The boat was very comfortable! The food was good. I stayed in one of the cabins for a single occupant. I found it to be wonderful! The bed was the BEST bed I have ever slept in on a liveaboard! I especially liked the night snorkel with the Silky Sharks! That was a lot of fun. One of the crew stood on the stern with a loudspeaker yelling when the sharks would come toward the back of the boat where the snorkelers were. It was a festive atmosphere! Despite not being impressed with the dive masters, I would go back on the Nautilus Explorer again! Sorry, but my photos are too large to download.

Solmar V Liveaboard

I've taken three trips on the Solmar V; Socorro, Sea of Cortez and Guadalupe (Great White Shark Dive). The rooms are very small and two people can't stand up in the room at the same time. The beds are bunk beds, so someone has to take the top bunk. I really don't like the rooms. The dining room is small and not comfortable. The crew are very knowledgeable and for the most part very friendly. There was one dive master that was grumpy! Other than that the crew was great! The food is usually very good. I prefer other liveaboards I've been on. The only way I would go back on the Solmar V is if the trip were on sale at a great price. I think you will find other liveaboards more comfortable. I hate to say that considering that the crew really are great!
