Please don't give up the flower gardens. It is a great trip especially for thoses that need some blue water. Even if the boat books up it just makes the trip more of an adventure and with more people....more the merrier.

I've never been on the Fling, but did the Spree last month. We only had 14 divers on the boat -- I could not possibly see potentially 20 more divers in the same space. I'd love to do the Flower Gardens again, but would not be willing to be on a boat with that many divers. That being said, if SD was considering a Fling trip, using Spree-like capacity, I'd be interested.

If we did it that is how we'd do it...meaning we charter the fling but limit the number of people. The pricing would be about the same as the Spree is now but I didn't fill our Flower Garden trip this year... :cool2:

I would be Fixen To Go on the Fling with All Y'all even though I've been spoiled by Frank/Melanie's vague boat/dive breifings !!!
BTW at the very most 24 pax whether just SD or others as well.
Does the Fling's cap cruise this site as I've never seen him post on Fling related topics?
