2009 Dive Season

We have an exciting year ahead. Best news of all, we are buying a new RIB.
We have (finally) made our decision and will be buying a 6.5m XS boat from Barnet Marine. This will give us much more space than the old boat, and with the additional bottle rack, everyone will be much more comfortable.
Even better, we have ordered a fantastic GPS/Chart/Side Scan Sonar for the boat. Claims that 'we will never miss the wreck again' are a little ambitious, perhaps. It would be better to say that we are less likely to miss the wreck (but we'll probably still miss slack water).

The new RIB will be based in Littlehampton next year, with dive trips organised for all neap weekends, and a few springs.
We also have a number of longer trips planned including the Medas Islands in Spain (June), North Devon and Lundy (July), The Isle of Mann (Aug) and Southern Red Sea (Sept).
We also have an excellent range of courses including all the diver grades, oxygen admin and boat handling.

Annual Wacky Olympics

Wacky Olympics 2007Hello Holborn, I am happy to report we came a very respectable 2nd in
the Wacky Olympics last Tuesday. We were pipped at the post by Teddington (whom I suspect may have done a spot of high-altitude
training prior to the event!). Many thanks to our elite athletes:
Angela, Emeka, Jackie, Mia, Miranda, Mark and Manos.
Emeka is still the reigning underwater surfing champion and Manos broke new ground with a controversial but highly effective 'turtle' technique. The less said about the synchro the better - but we did get the silver!! Thanks also to our supporters for cheering us on - it was a great turnout.. Sarah Dickson
