Following my begging for a space earlier this week.................
Any spaces Sat 17th South Coast .......... Scubee very kindly offered a space.
Plan was to board Brighton Diver around 7am for a 7.45 leave to Dive the Northeaster. Typically I was early and arrived at 6:30. Loaded my kit onto the boat and tested it.
Now went hunter gathering for drinks, where I found Scubee and Tim in McD's.
Back on the boat and Dan arrives, followed by Paul (Skipper). Turns out that there is only 4 divers on the trip today - woo hoo, no worries about Juz spreading out and taking up loads of room!!
Flat calm journey out, generally taking the mick out of each other. As Dan and I were on CCR, we dropped in together and down the shot to find it mid-brightness with around 5-6m Viz, looks like this is going to be a 'good-un'.
The wreck is upright on the sand at 56m, standing around 10m proud. The superstructure has collapsed, but still a stunning dive, and one that I'd never heard of before.
56m Max depth, with most of the BT 47-50m and a run time of 82 mins.
Great people, on a good boat, with a great skipper for a fab dive - a very good day, and I thank Scubee for letting me tag along and Dan for dropping in with me.
