MV Dolphin Queen

 

M/V DOLPHIN QUEEN was built in 1999. It has a wooden hull which means less sound from the engine room. Dolphin Queen has 3 decks.

The main deck has 8 guest cabins that are air conditioned and have a sea view window that opens. There are 2 more cabins with double beds on the upper deck which when you open the cabin door gives you the view of the ocean or islands. All cabins have 220v plugs, so you can charge your battery packs or your lights.

At the stern of the main deck is the dive platform and the gearing up area. We use 40 Luxfer 12 ltr Aluminium tanks with INT (Yoke) connections, but we also have some DIN adapters. There are also 2 Bauer Mariner II compressors with an air cooling system with P41 air filters, to give you the best quality air. Close at hand are Similan Diving Safaris 3 boat crew, who are there to help you gear up and help you on your dive entry and exit. The crew fills the tanks so all you do is dive. Most of the time you will be picked up by our boat or our dingy.

There are 3 spacious toilets with showers and 2 showers on the dive deck.

The upper deck is where you can find the wheel house (captains quarters) at the bow.
At the stern is the eating area. Here you can help yourself with coffee, tea, toast, water, electrolyte drinks, fruits which are always on the table for your convenience.
