Boats, Workshop and Compressors

Boats
We currently operate three dive boats: Miss Ta Ta, Miss Ina and Miss Bertha. Miss Ina and Miss Bertha are powered by twin Mercury Verado 300 hp 4-stroke engines which ecologically friendly and very quiet for the enjoyment of our guests. Miss Ta Ta appears to be similar to our other boats in the fleet, but is our newest member and is powered by a Yanmar inboard diesel engine - making for one sleek looking dive boat! Our boats are all equipped with fresh drinking water, all safety equipment including 2 way radios and cellular phones, first aid kits, flares, fire extinguishers, dive flags and a DAN Oxygen unit.
