Hello there Brian. You don’t necessarily need a buddy when signing up for a liveaboard trip. There are usually lots of people in the boat who would be willing to dive with you. In fact, even if you did have a buddy who might want to miss a particular dive someone would dive with you. Also, the dive master will ask the group if someone needs a buddy to dive with. Either others will take you on or he will dive with you himself. Liveaboards are one of the best dive trips I’ve done, lots of opportunities to meet other divers and perhaps hook up for a future dive. Love it! Good luck, have fun and dive safe! Sandra

Liveaboards are the greatest for diving as much as you want and always finding someone to dive with. Even if you take a buddy that wants to sit out a dive.
You may want to check out Blackbeard Cruises, too. They have three levels of liveaboard boats, as far as cost. From the Blackbeard sailboat to the Aquacat. The sailboat is cheap and it’s a lot of fun. It’s also warmer water diving than the Channel Islands in California. I was glad someone told me about them, so I thought I’s pass it on.

Hey Brian
I went to the caymans and stayed on the aggressor back in ’97. Went by myself and had one of the best trips of my life. There was always someone to dive with, even the Captain. Don’t be concerned too much about not having a buddy if you want to go on a live aboard...
cheers
