[quote=Bantam]I'm in the umming and aaahing stages of sorting out a trip to Plymouth on a hard boat, prolly for 10 peeps, but maybe more, doing the JEL, Scylla et al.
Am aiming for may-time but I think I may not be lucky. Any recommendations of skippers? I've used Dave Booker with Amoco before and he was brill.

Pete Fergus is an excellent skipper. He runs an offshore 105 'Venture' from Plymouth. I think he is full for May, but its worth giving him a bell - 07778 494 274. Alternatively call Roger Webber - 07773 157 981 or
www.plymdive.com - who runs Excalibur. The boat is a little tired, but Roger is Ok, and he arranges bookings for a few other boats, so if he can't accommodate you on his boat he'll probably be able to find someone who will. Lastly you can try Deep Blue's Seeker -
http://www.deepbluediving.org/ - boat looks OK, but I havent dives off it so can't comment on skipper etc.
Hope that helps
Paul
PS - if no joy I have Venture booked for the 7th and 8th May and can keep you informed if I have any spaces.
