Usual dives will be on the big seven - the wrecks of the German Fleet.

Markgraf - 45m to the deepest bit. 26,000 tonnes.
Kronprinz Wilhelm - 38m to the deepest bit. Same class as above.
Konig - currently closed to diving. May re-open.

Dresden - Cruiser. 38mish at the stern
Karlsruhe - Cruiser. 28m.
Coln - 36m
Brummer- 34m

Others, F2, corvette class equivalent captured in WW2 and then sank, now has its salvage barge alongside which also sank. Oops.

HMS Roedean - Minesweeper.
James Barrie - big trawler in exceptional vis
UB116 - blasted sub but covered in life with fantastic vis
Blockships - Tabarka, Doyle and the Gobenador Bories (go bananas). All less than 18m, all with outstanding vis.

Possibility of going outside the flow if people want to, it costs a wee bit more to cover the diesel, but if we get the weather, go for it.
