Born Fan Club

On behalf of the Born Fan Club, of which auspicious organisation I lay claim to Membership Number #0001, I’d like to thank all at Sea-Bees for making my (June) 2010 holiday such a perfect experience. Every “dive day” ran like clockwork, from the hotel pick-up in the morning, through the transfers to the Excalibur, the cruise to and from each dive site, to the timely return back to my hotel in the evening. The dive boats, Aragon and Excalibur II, are comfortable, spacious, comprehensively equipped and brilliantly organised, a place where everything happens with quiet, simple, efficiency. Food, drink and catering are simply first class, with your Team performing culinary marvels on a daily basis.
And all of this is before we even mention the diving… During my 3 weeks with you in June of this year I had the pleasure of diving with every member of your Team – and without exception everyone was superb. Every single dive was a wonderful learning experience…. Whether it was picking up dive craft tips, or discovering more about local marine life, or how to get the most out of my camera, every single member of your Dive Team is skilled, enthusiastic, friendly, patient and knowledgeable – and their willingness to put in so much effort to make sure that every dive is a “perfect” dive is a real credit to Sea-Bees.

The care and attention to detail of the pre-dive briefings made for a richer dive experience; the “local knowledge” of your Dive Guides meant that on every dive we managed to find an amazing selection of local wildlife – and have plenty of opportunity to get some excellent photographs. And yet I think the most striking memory for me was watching your Team work together – they are so skilled and experienced that everything “just works”, but the respect and sense of fun they bring to the day make for a real “Sea-Bees Family” atmosphere, and that’s really special.

But, best of all, there’s Born. Somehow, Born takes diving to a whole new level… Not simply by virtue of being my Instructor, Dive Guide, and Dive Mentor; not because of a super-human ability to find every possible variety of marine wildlife; not just because she is a superb diver… but because she has an incredibly infectious enthusiasm for what she does.

Born: you are, quite simply, The Best!

So thank you Sea-Bees, for a truly wonderful 2010 vacation. I can’t wait to come back and see you again soon!

Clive

    I simply couldn`t have said it better…
    Born is simply the best! :-)
    I was never diving in an ocean before, just in lakes in Austria. I had a very good dive instructor for my open water course in 2009 and I thought nobody could be better… I was completely wrong.

    When I came to Chalong, I was a bit afraid of what would happen while diving in an ocean so I decided to undergo the advanced course and I expected not to have that much fun or time to see the marine sea life. and I was again completely wrong.

    Born is simply fantastic, in the 3 days with her, I saw so much, unbelievable. She is finding every special thing in the ocean, notices all what you are doing, or just thinking, informs you about anything going on, not just about what had happened, also what will happen in the future. She is always smiling and it was most authentic, because I had the impression, that she really loves her job. I`ve never met a person like this. She is playing in a private league… And I’m so thankful that I was allowed to dive with her, because now, there is no doubt left, that diving is the best sport ever! :-)

    And I must confess that I had a “frog in the throat”, when I had to say goodbye, and I truly hope that I will see her again in the future. Born is a person one must like just for herself! :-)
