As the situation with Covid19 evolves, we will continue to adapt and improve the measures we are taking: • We are requesting and requiring guests to monitor and record their body temperature twice a day for the week before boarding. • Social distancing including additional dive skiffs, staggered meal times and briefings.. • Vital Oxide hospital grade disinfectant with 7 day hold time applied with fogging machines. • An intense focus on onboard sanitation from supplying sanitized rental gear in vacuum packs to crew assisted buffet service to motion activated hands free sanitation stations on the back deck.
