Cocos Aggressor is the worst I been on.The cruise director didn’t flinch when I told him this was my 9th Aggressor and my induction to the Seven Seas Club. The cruise director and the captain was our DM that carries camera while guiding us. The captain was the worst that took too long of taking pictures. He only care about his photography. One diver surface alone and was far ahead. 3 divers was left filming school of jacks while he went ahead without signaling the divers. On several occasions, he lead us swimming thru currents while the other panga dove w the currents on the same site. The cruise director led us to deep dives on every dives. And, on several dives there were only 1hr surface interval which affected NDL even diving on nitrox. Not everyone was treated equally. He also lead a land excursion which was quite dangerous. One diver was seriously injured and one almost swept away to the other side. Two pangas dropped off 20 divers that needs to swim to the beach with crashing waves was a disaster. As a cruise director, he should have noticed it was not safe to do the excursion and should have postponed it to a later time. This is the first Aggressor I been on that VIP service was lacking. I had to asked for help carrying my camera. They are not attentive w divers coming up from a dive too busy chatting, especially, the captain. And, this the first Aggressor that I had to clean my gear. They did not change the water after the 2nd dive and expected us to clean our gear in dirty water. The cruise director didn’t wait until all guests cleaned their gear. They prematurely dumped 3 water containers and we were left w one. Cruise director cleaned his gear/rental with the hose I been waiting for to clean my camera and regulator. I decided to take those items to my room to clean. I commanded the waiter/chefs they made the experience torturable. The food was good, especially , the sushi party and was attentive w dietary needs. Also the crew was more concerned w bruises on my eyes/forehead from the beach outting than the director. I did wish that water pitcher should have been placed during meals and a linen napkins for dinner. Also, an acrylic wine glass have been good during the cruise like all other Aggressor I been on. This Aggressor needs to be par w other Aggressor. It made me sad that hold a low degree of the Aggressor standard.
