MY Genesis I
Thailand · Historical boat profile · Updated 9 November 2026
We had a great time on this boat. Food was plentiful and in general excellent, though it did tend to be a western take on Thai food so not as good as I have had elsewhere in my opinion. The staff were very friendly and helpful, after each dive you were helped back on board and in heavy seas encountered the first dive the boys even got in the water as they could see I was going to take a bit of time. My one gripe is the description of a deluxe cabin, it’s not! A more honest description would be twin bunk cabin with air con and ensuite shower room. The other thing I do not like is to be asked to give a certain amount t as a tip for the boat staff as they are not paid well. Put a bit on the price and pay your boat staff properly, then a tip is just that, not an optional surcharge where you feel mean if you do not comply.
Hi Jane!
I simply want to thank you for dropping a great review of the Andaman Tritan here! It’s super helpful for other divers!
Also, I completely agree about the tipping policy, which often ends up odd.
Best travels & bubbles!
