It must be still running, as of last week. The last time I dived on
the T&C Aggressor was in 1999, back to back with the Cayman Aggressor.
It was in really bad shape, with a temporary captain, transient DM,
and equipment needing overhaul. :-) That was Julie's boat, the
original T&C Aggressor that started in 1992. I dived on it and the
PhD Sea Dancer that year, back to back, just for comparison.
In 1999, I hand-carried some Aggressor stuff from that Aggressor to
Alan Roberts (Manager of the Fleet) who was substituting for Captain
of the Cayman Aggressor.
But the DIVING was great, on either Fleet.

Had a great time and prefer this type of diving to shore based.
I think it'll have a difficult time getting enough passengers to
dive Utila on a liveabord, just as both the Aggressor and PhD
Fleets had a tough time with theie Bay Islands operations, even
when they discounted those charters to several hundred dollars
less than the rest of the Caribbean.

Peter Hughes has apparently pulled the plug out of the T&C
liveaboard -- for many years served by the Sea Dancer.
