Pretty sure it's still out and about, though you might want to continue enquiring through one of the other pages on their site.
Not too likely the Tattoo's going anywhere other than the route it does...

2 more days 'til paradise... this waiting is heck. *grin*

Ladies and Gents, here's the poop on the Tattoo.
It's been sold, actually went "out of service" so to speak about a month ago, and it's been sold to a company that is in the process of building another "bigger and better" mate to the Tattoo. As we speak, if you were to see it sitting in the water you'd wonder when it was going to sink... all the ballast has been pretty much removed and the motors are weighing her down in the water.
At any rate, she's going to be back in service (by new owners) manana.
And we all know what that means...

Yeah, we're home... did we love it? Of course.

Could the trip have been any better? Not a hope in heck...

For those interested I'll do a little report elsewhere. After 11 trips there's not a lot of new stuff to talk about, but the stuff that did happen was, well..... wonderful.

Mr Ratt - Thank you so much for the report. I had not heard back from them and had decided that I wasnt going to book them due to their lack of communication. Appears I wont be booking them for other reasons now

Yeah, 7 days is never really long enough, but one learns to be grateful for any time in paradise.
As for an alternate excursion, you really might want to look at a sunset sail on the Mi Dushi on a Friday eve. Same organization and yes, they will respond, and often you can book through your resort when you arrive. That's often as easy as the online thing, and considering it IS Aruba, and life is on island time.... you know where I'm going here.

Go have fun on the island, take the trip on the Mi Dushi, and just revel in your time in paradise.


More to follow...
