From our own observations and from listening to the feedback from our divers over the years it was early in 2008 when we at Marco Dive Resort made a decision that diving services in and around Puerto Galera could do with some improvement. The first of these improvements would be the acquisition of a new, modern, safe, fast and comfortable Dive Boat.
After a thorough search of local industries we eventually chose a builder who specialized in constructing export quality boats.
In Co-operation with The Boat Shop, we came up with the design of our new dive boat. The construction period lasted five months, after which we took possession of a twelve meter dive boat able to carry 18 divers at high speed, in comfort.
