blue o two present their brand new support vessel in the Maldives
UK-based diving tour operator, blue o two, have announced their brand new dhoni, blue Shadow, to accompany the newly refurbished M/Y blue Voyager.
The travel company has invested in a beautiful, custom-built dhoni which holds all required diving equipment, with one diver per station. The 19 metre dhoni is one of the biggest operated in the Maldives with plentiful space on board, as well as a helpful and friendly crew, ready to assist.
You can enjoy amazing views both below and above sea level by exploring the top deck of the dhoni, and bathe on the sun-drenched deck. Located just below the main deck, there are two toilets equipped with showers to freshen up straight away after your dive. In addition to this, there are two handheld showers on the back deck, and separate camera and equipment rinse tanks.
With a powerful engine, two generators and two compressors with a nitrox membrane system, blue o two’s new dhoni provides you with first-rate diving in the Maldives.
On board M/Y blue Voyager you can relax in a separate outdoor dining area, a bar and sky lounge, as well as a Jacuzzi.
The company has also revealed a new Loyalty Club offer which is exclusive to the Maldives. Book onto a trip departing between now and 11th September 2017 to take advantage of blue o two’s new special offer. For every guest booking onto either M/V Sea Spirit or M/Y blue Voyager, another diver will get 50% off their full package price*.
- This offer is applicable for both boat-only and fully inclusive packages with flights to the Maldives.
- Applicable for bookings on M/Y blue Voyager and M/V Sea Spirit on any sailings between now and 11th September 2017.
