Five Star outfit for important reasons. They are passionate and educated about sharks. The Crew, Josh and Liz care deeply about the sharks and their ecosystem and enjoy sharing their "underwater friends" with us. Sure does clear up a lot of misunderstanding about sharks and shark tours, especially from a fisherman like me. It was amazing to see a bazillion game fish swimming freely along with one or two sharks. I was ignorant to think these guys (sharks and crew) affect my off shore fishing. The experience was not a shark feeding, it was a natural shark interaction in their natural environment. I was the unnatural dude. Also, I have been on several dive boats that also advertise "gourmet lunches" but Emerald delivers. They know somebody who knows somebody that prepares sandwiches from a profession kitchen. All the sauces made from scratch, homemade cookies and sides. Cool boat too. They even had diet coke (took them from 5.0 to 5.1 in my book). Can't say enough about Josh, the shark guy (follow him). He worked harder underwater than any dive master I ever seen. You have to see Josh underwater for yourself. I understand Liz is the Shark Master on Wed and Sunday. That may be out next Shark Advanture. If your looking for a bourgeois dive boat, Emerald is not yours. If your looking for being a part of a team of crew and divers that really know their stuff, Emerald could possible be the best at what they do. Half of the divers on the boat were seasoned underwater photographers with the best equipment. I felt like they had a good reason for choosing Emerald over and over again. Cool boat too. I'll be back, and not just for the diet coke. Thanks Josh and Liz. - via Google
