SeaTrek
currently uses The Moorings 4500
yacht as our program platform. The 4500 is sleek and efficient with
four cabins and four heads. Cabins have ample room to stow clothing
and other supplies as well as lamps for reading and a double size
bed. While you will be sharing a cabin with 2-4 other Trekers, most
of your time is spent above deck. We use multi-hull yachts that
allow for ample sleeping area from shared cabins to waterproof hammocks
you may used to sleep out under the stars. Because of its design
the yacht can easily support up to 15 passengers. It
is 26 feet wide and 45 feet long with a mast height of over 70 feet.
There is a spacious lounge and galley where you and the staff prepare
breakfast, lunch, and dinner. There is also an outdoor shaded sitting area
called the cockpit where the helm is located. Every SeaTrek yacht
is easy to sail, has abundant space, and is a perfect platform for
diving.
SeaTrek uses all of the 4500's strengths to create a safe and educational
atmosphere. All yachts are equipped with their own air compressors
and scuba cylinders. This allows for an intensive diving schedule
with the ease of a live-aboard dive vessel. SeaTrek also uses high
speed skiffs for water sports and transportation. After
a quick course in the handling and safety of
our smaller skiffs you may be allowed to visit friends on
other boats, head to shore for some beach time, or just cruise around
and enjoy the beauty of the islands.. SeaTrek helps you make the
most of your free time in the islands.
SeaTrek offers you only
the highest quality dive, sail, and scientific equipment for the
best possible experience. All diving equipment is purchased at the
beginning of each summer and all tanks and compressors are serviced
regularly to insure peak performance. If you enjoy using your dive
gear during your voyage, it
will be available for purchase at the end of the summer. We
require that you purchase your own mask, fins, snorkel, and optional
dive boots before you sail with us to ensure proper fitting
and satisfaction. Water sports equipment including wake boards,
water skis, knee boards, sea-kayaks, etc. are brand new. Even the
rigid bottom inflatable boats that are the workhorses of our water
sports activities are of the highest caliber. Our scientific equipment
is second to none and greatly aids you in understanding the underwater
environment. Instruments such as microscopes,
dissection trays, and quadrants show you life on the coral reef
like you have never seen it before.
