Article Summary:

There are still last-minute spots left on this trip!  After the recent announcement of dozens of new species found just off the coast of Papua New Guinea, you’re going to want to go on this trip.  Renowned photographer and filmmaker Norbert Wu and Wetpixel’s Eric Cheng will be aboard a brand-new dive vessel called Seahorse for a dive expedition in Rajah Ampat this coming February 6-21, 2007.  The itinerary will take us from Fak-Fak (mentioned in the article as breaking the world record for most species on a single dive) to Sorong over the course of 15 days.  Graham Abbott, a Wetpixel member and owner of Diving4Images, leads the expedition.

Update: Alex Mustard has just returned from a trip on the Seahorse (same itinerary), and David Doubilet and “the scientists” will be out there on the charter just before ours.  This area is *hot*.
