Normandy - Liveaboards

Hi,

Can any of the YD masses recommend any suitable charter boats who can take 12 divers as live aboard for a week to dive the wrecks around Normandy please?


Looking for April/May 2009


TIA

John

Channel Diver is a day boat that the skipper takes over to froggie land to dive the Normandy wrecks.

l have one three day and one four day froggie gig booked with him and we are staying ashore in some froggie 'otel.

Missed the liveaboard bit - You think I'd know that after being on his boat over 20 times

Cheers David, I've emailed for availability of 'maureen of dart' awaiting a reply. Already tried Loyal Watcher and been told there not doing Normandy.

Thanks for the replies guys, please keep them coming if you know of more.

Gary Pittaway saw the sea in a book once
Maureen of Dart any day. Great old boat, with excellent crew. Mike and Penny are the hubby and wife team, and son Giles. Giles tends to be at the helm a lot whilst Mike chills out in his mature years, and Penny does everything else, and cooks fantastic meals. They are a great family team who will be sadly missed should they one day decide to retire.

You will not be dissapointed, however they are fully booked this year. Call though, as many of the charters tend to have the odd few spaces available. They will put you in touch with the respective organiser.

Mike opened up Normandy. I went last year (4th trip) and had an excellent time. Try and do the Leopoldsville if you can.

Gp
