We did four days of diving aboard the MV Moana in the South Andaman.
The boat is an older wooden hulled purpose-built dive boat recently refurbished to add restrooms to the cabins and modernize the rest.

The cabins are small with not much storage or workspace, but the beds are huge.
Divers enjoy their phones in spite of the gorgeous sunset.
Charge station. Never enough for all those batteries.
