Some charter companies promote quality, some price. You just can't get both high quality 4 star accommodations and the cheapest price. Where Conch falls into this equation I don't know, but as the saying goes, " Pick your Poison"
It's not what you've got, it's what you give, it's not the life you choose, it's the life you live.

ugo said: We haven't chartered with them in a couple years. Does anyone know if they have updated their bathroom situation? It used to be just one dilapidated room.....with only one toilet and one shower. Ugh! Sounds like you went to the janitors work room. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

onlymedication said: Even if sleeping aboard, you have the facilities on board the boat to use. Wait, aren't you the one who was complaining in another thread about charter boat head discharge into the waters causing coral death? Many, if not most, sleep aboard charterers arrive as the staff is leaving or later, so no time to go over holding tank valve closing/opening, and most charter companies do not close their boats' holding tank valves. So you're ok with charterers using their boat's heads and discharging into the waters at their base? In fact, charter base restroom quality is an issue for many people who don't want to use the boat's heads at the base, for that very reason.

Used it two years ago after a sleep aboard. Pretty basic, but still much bigger than onboard. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Kiss.gif" alt="" /> fair water stream, barely warm water. Cistern? They had no power on our return, said that part of the island power was out.
JPH I spent my money on booze, broads, and boats...the rest I wasted.

There are two bathrooms/showers for the charterers to use at Conch. While they certainly aren't fancy, they're more than adequate IMO. They're locked overnight but they combo's are in the boat info book on your charter boat.
