The boat is well equipped and well designed. the owners are friendly and professional. The price is rather on the high side. Food was excellent (buffet at lunch and evening, cold + hot).
Nitrox for free (sometimes even when we expected an air refill).
Forget about cold beer in the bar. The fridge has received a new coat of painting but it is almost non functioning. Some investment needed in the speedboats and the ladder.
Would definitely recommend.
