ABOUT
US
Our 62 foot wooden hulled boat was built in 1972 as a sport fishing boat and was converted shortly after for scuba diving. We have four compressors that pump 40 cubic feet of air per minute, 24 bunks, a full galley, a hot tub, a chase boat and a swim step for ease of divers to board. We have been in Ventura Harbor for 35 years and have loved every minute of it. Our trips specialize in the Northern Channel Islands, but we have both single and multi-day trips going to all eight Channel Islands and Cortes or Tanner Banks.
Divers can view the California Moray eel, giant Black Sea Bass, Garibaldi, Sea Lions, Spanish Shawl nudibranch, Harbor Seals, Bat Ray, kelp forests and much more. Tank air fills and meals are provided, and nitrox is available for an additional fee. Our hot tub seats 8 people, a fantastic feature for our cold Pacific waters. Single day trips to Anacapa or Santa Cruz are suitable for beginners and intermediate divers who want spectacular scenery for photo-ops and sightseeing. There are also single and multi-day trips available for beginners, intermediate and advanced groups who are either hunting or sightseeing. Free-diving trips with no tanks for breath-hold dives are available as well. Divers see yellowtail, white seabass, barracuda, halibut and many species of reef fish.
