Panama City Dive Charters is a scuba charter for hire. Originally we offered recreational trips to Panama City shipwrecks but were also AAUS certified science divers with experience doing working dives for fisheries researchers, UUV operations, and search and recovery. To help retain our uniquely trained team between contracts we decided to open a full service PADI dive shop in 2010, which has begun a new phase of recreational sector operations.
Our USCG inspected 36' Newton dive boat is an excellent platform for single day and overnight research trips that offers considerable cost savings over larger traditional research vessels. She can offer 110A/C power at up to 3000 continuous watts. Her low fantail makes delicate equipment recovery and deployment significantly less tedious.
Our new 25' Parker is a fast efficient compliment to the Newton. Her enclosed cabin and spacious deck are ideally suited to dive operations or charters while her top speed and acceleration make her excellent as an intercept or chase vessel.
