<font color='#000080'>Hi Bob and thanks for the info.
This was the sort of answer I was expecting. The reason for the post was really that I believe there is some misrepresentation going on by the trip organiser to get people to sign up and do a lot of unnecessary (but financially rewarding for him) training. Whether they actually get to make the trip is another question.
I always fancied the dive and in light of your comments I'm going to try and go it alone, just me and the wife and possibly a couple of close friends.
Thanks again, I shall pass on your comments to the rest of the gang.
