That sunset cruise has changed then since March as it was mandatory to do the presentation.

Forgot to add that WiFi is free for owners but now there is a charge for renters at RP and Flamingo.

Just a guess, Carol, but thinking the term 'renters' would probably apply to anyone who isn't a direct unit owner, be it weeks or points ownership. We had a discussion with someone about this while there but we were actually talking about the distinction as made at the Towers. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Carol_Hill said: Renters?? What do you mean, "renters"--people who are there through a hotel site? Yes, anybody that rents direct through Diamond or a rental agency. I believe that also applied to RCI and II trades too.

You may be thinking about Lambada. I never knew who was captain of the Lambada. Haresh has always been captain of the Tango, for the past few years, and according to JD, was the captain as of March this year.

OK, he always introduces himself as Haresh on the boat. He actually looks kind of Indian (from the country India) to me, so that name made sense. Regardless, happy for those going on Tango soon that he is still there, as he is a neat captain.

Scubaman, is that SS cruise good for Simpson Bay Resort guests as well? Also, where do you dive? We've done Saba(and loved it) but don't want to pay to fly there again. Thanks in advance!!!

Thanks in advance!!! SSR guests go on the Tango the same time the RP and Flamingo guests go on the Lambada. Same price. 15 on Monday nights. I have over 200 dives in St Maarten. All on the Dive Machine through Aqua Mania with Dive Adventure. Diving again tomorrow. Two tank boat dive is usually back by 12:30. Saba is nice but it's an all day affair and a lot more expensive. Been there five times and enjoyed it but the waters around St Maarten have very nice dive sites too.

Thanks, Scubaman! You're the best! What time? And where do you meet for SS cruise? Also, your fav dives on SXM IF you don't mind? So appreciate.We were supposed to do a dive w sharks last time but TS Jean was on location. We were lucky to do Saba. Got stranded on the island overnight. Almost two bc of wind. Merci again!
