I traveled on the sister ship to this one couple years ealier on a similarly exotic trip to all sorts of far flung destinations. While it was a small crowd (~50 passengers) it was mostly all these types of hardcore dedicated travelers, mostly eldery folks, that are keen on checking off the most remote of destinations. Sure, a few of them were rich lambo-types but by and large they were pretty down to earth, nature focused people with above average means. I find it hard to believe they would fall for such swindling but it sounds like this guy had just enough real stuff going on to convince folks he was legit...
