Weymouth - Shotline Scuba?

Has anyone heard of, or used, Shotline Scuba in Weymouth? There are apparently found above the Old Harbour Dive Centre and a firend was given their number by the OHDC but I can't find a single reference to them anywhere!

I am trying to find info on their RIB which my mate has booked to see if I want to dive off it in twins ie, does it have a bench?

Any help gratefully received, as always

Cheers

Lou

I could be wrong (probably am), but I don't think any of the ribs from Weymouth or Portland have benchs (or ladders for that matter).

'fraid you are. At least one, Protector, has some bench space and probably the best ladder on any boat I've used. It also has a cabin and good lunches.

Lou, IIRC, Shotline Charters is run by Nigel and Mary who used to run Fathom and Blues. They run a large rib with a large mid-positioned cabin. I'm not sure about the ladder.

HTH,

Mark

Cheers all. I think that would be an accident waiting to happen for me and I will give it a miss.

I do like some comfort....

probarbly made the right choice lou ya can jump off a nice roomy hard boat for roughly the same money.
can't understand people paying top dollar for a rushed day out and no creature comforts .
must be me showing me age.
