Thanks for that Steve,

If you know? it might help for those interested with a bit more description of the type of diving thats being anticipated, wrecks, depths etc.

Hi Steve,

Just so members know, what wrecks, depths, sites (e.g. Bofascadale, Tiree, Muck Wall etc.) are you planning on visiting - appreciate as you're on a liveaboard you'll have pretty much a choice any where in day's sailing of Oban/Lochaline/Inner Heb's, but a bit more info might help you fill the spots.

Good luck and enjoy the diving!

Basically, one boat for dedicated "Wreckies" and the other for "Kelp-Huggers!

The people (mainly between BSAC Sports - Advanced) already booked will be diving no deeper than 50m and we are all Open Circuit. A couple of us will be doing extended range type stuff but the majority will be happily pottering along with single 12's or 15's.

The "Wreckie" Boat will be visiting the usual sites - Rondo (to 50m, if you want, not mandatory) Hispania & Shuna (both 30'ish), Breda (20m) etc but if the weather is on our side may head out of the Sound of Mull. No idea what is planned for boat two - probably to be sorted out when we get there. If anyone has a burning desire to visit a specific location, I am sure it can be arranged, we're all pretty laid back.

Anyone is welcome, as long as they are appropriately qualified and have experience of UK sea diving.

Happy bunch, good p**s up, hope some of you can make it!
