Hello

 


I had a wonderful trip on the Peace Boat to Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa Islands in early May.  The plan was to make it out to San Miguel but the weather didn't permit it.  The Peace is a wonderful dive boat.  I'm always amazed at how the crew pulls together to make sure every single passenger on the boat is having fun.  They run a safe yet unobtrusive operation and are always happy to share their vast knowledge of the ocean with the passengers.  Thanks Eric, Kevin, Deb, Steve, and Brayton!  Beth and I look forward to seeing you again soon.

Dive the Peace
