What can I say, it completely blew me away. Sea was pretty calm and the vis was about 8m. The previous boat from our club had put a shot right on the boilers and we dropped in on that and had a good 45mins finning around what is a pretty spread out wreck. We found the heavy chain of the anchor and some of the more intact sections of the ship and saw plenty of starfish, urchins etc. Max depth reached was 12.5m. All in all a pretty perfect first dive. Nice, clear and easy and left me gagging for the next one.
Glad you enjoyed it I felt pretty much the same after my first UK sea dive. I'd only planned to learn so I could dive on holiday but was hooked after the dives I did out of Weymouth.

Cheers/Nic
