Red Sea September 2003
A one week live-aboard trip in the Red Sea. The route was Brothers, Daedelus, Elphinestone (and excellent route packing all the best parts into a single week!), and the boat was the Suzanna 1, quite simply the best boat I have seen in the Red Sea to date! Details on the boat can be found here: http://www.scuba-diving-safaris.co.uk/red_sea_liveaboards/suzanna_1.htm
