MV Flying Seahorse sunk!

A week ago, Peter of Lanta Diving Safaris had to post on FB that his ship, the Flying Seahorse, is lost. No lives were lost, but the boat is completely battered by the raging sea in a typhoon that came without warning.
He had put all his money and energy into this business and is now confronted with a big black void.

Peter is the only operator to offer liveaboard trips from Ko Lanta way down to Ko Lipe, deep south. There is a lot of day cruises, but no one to offer 5 days 4 nights trips in that area. What a pity.
I had booked and paid a trip to Ko Lipe with this boat, April 20-24, but now there is no boat anymore.
I gave Peter a week and asked today, how it is going to go on, but have no answer yet.
Other friends of Peter set up bank accounts for donations.
Peter sent my money for the trip back completely. I retransfered 200 Euros, roughly a third of my payment for the trip, as donation for the loss. Hope it helps.

So now I have a blank timespan again, April 14 til May 13

See you under water
