Dive Charter, Dive Center & Travel Arrangements: Portugal

[ADNG]

INFO CLEARED.

Hope this goes within the Good Will spirit.

Looks good but I would check with a mod before you get jumped on!!

Youre gonna be in trouble for this

[ADNG]

how come?

[ADNG]

let me see if i can find any rules that do not allow such kind of posts; if so, ím sorry...
i´ll be the first to delete it; but from what i´ve seen, there are other ref.s to other operators;

anyway, i´ll recheck

[ADNG]

For instance...on that request for FL operators, there are a number of ref.s and straight contacts to the operators, so... where´s the difference?...

Anyway, that post won´t affect Yorkshire boat charters or Dive centers considering that were located way abroad.

A MOD will clear our doubts for sure.

To give you the benefit of doubt let me explain which I believe is written in the terms of the site:

Yorkshire Divers is a forum where everyone is expected to participate, it isn't a free place for advertisers especially with no participation before hand. You should check with the Mods before hand to get their permision. In the past there have been many companies who joined expecting free publicity and that did not go down well.

I hope now you joined you can participate and enjoy YD.

By the way it took me some time to try to locate where you are and even so I only placed you in the North of Portugal. There does not seem to have a fixed adress. I was also suprised you did not list the submarine, the main attraction for diving off this part of the coast.

Participate and enjoy YD, it is a great place and there are a couple of members from the north of PT as well.

Hello Chris:

My appologies for showing up apparently that strong;
I kept following YK Divers Forum for a few months now,as a personal user.

When we had the chance to make ADNG public, than i proudly wanted to spread the word to the whole Diving community, after all we are the only properly licenced for the activity here.
There are others who don´t have the legal permits to do it nor the right kind of vessels to go beyond the 6 miles range as we have.

(that´s enough for getting the boat, gear apprehended by the Navy, at least in our country).

The U-Boat info is available at the website; by clicking on spots you can find a U-1277 link, or click here

Soon we will set an online Divers Portal and hopefully all the info, etc will be easier to find.

It hasn´t been easy coming this far, neither bringing up the right resources.

Obviously there is a fixed address registered, although as you might of seen we can work from 3 different harbours, therefore we would have either to buy or rent 3 different places or do it as we do for now;

All the gear and fillings for rent have been gladly given to us for the purpose of selling from Oporto Diving Academy; and that is the gear that the Diver will get.

The Vessels and facilities (showers,etc) required for the Divers are available at the Marinas.

We haven´t bought any "resort label" from some dive agency as some do;
It´s easy to pay an small annual fee and get a flag and stickers stating that "we are a &&&& resort".

What´s not so easy:
To invest in the kind of vessels that we have, nor the equipment they have aboard. And that is what a Wreck Diver needs and Wants, either recreational or Technical.

Another thing that isn´t easy at all, is to get the proper license to become a boat charter and endure the expenses of the regular safety checks by the authorities preserving the vessels at peak conditions in order to serve the public.

Cheers and safe Diving!

Once again my apologies for such an abrupt entrance at the YK forum!
