Our local dive club had organised a 'newbie' dive on the shallow wreck (25mtrs) of HMS Brazen especially for members who'd not been in the channel before. Each of us newbies were buddied up with an experienced diver. There were three boats going out in the end, 2 ribs and the hard boat 'Neptune'.
anyway its so different in the sea compared to the lakes, obviously, seeing the wreck was so cool even though i didn't really recognise what was what i was looking at! we saw plenty of fish and several star fish. it was weird thinking to myself 'I'm at the bottom of the English Channel' lol
I really can't wait to get back out there.. I'm not really sure about going out on a rib yet... we were kinda spoiled on the hard boat with having a lift to get us out the water as well as a lovely hot cuppa and sausage rolls as soon as we de-kitted
