Just wondering because it says they have cable but doesn't specify HBO. Yeah, get away from it all, do a night dive, etc. it would be really, really good if I didn't have to wait until I get home to catch up on Deadwood and Entourage!

Thanks!

Marc

I can't recall, but why don't you email them and ask. I believe one of their email addresses is info@buddydive.com.

My guess is yes....as the cable at Capt Don's has HBO. I imagine all the lodging properties have the same Cable Plan.

Sometimes I miss the obvious, just too much excitement - I emailed Buddy Dive and just so it is in the archives, below is the listing of their cable tv lineup.

Now I know I don't have to have 3 different friends record Deadwood and Entourage "just in case"! Interesting international channels too.

I'm getting ready for my 13th trip to Buddy Dive, and I can't remember having ever turned on the TV. I'd rather eat, sleep, or dive....

Me too but then again maybe you are not a Deadwood or Entourage fan.

That Vegas episode last week was one of the best TV moments for me ever and who could forget that street fight between Dan and Hearst's goon just a few episodes ago. :-)

2 days until wheels up!!!! Whheeeeeeeee.......
