Plymouth 25/26 March off Furious,

[dave archer]

IF the boat is available, would anyone else be interested in diving Friday as well as Sat/Sun?

Just gauging level of interest at the moment, so can talk to Paul and/or skipper about possibility...

Dave i could well be interested, i will have to look at some options

With a boat as fast as Pete's I'd get out to the Eddystone. If he whinges, point out that his boat is called "Eddystone Charters" so he really does not have a leg to stand on.

If you want a really really good wreck, rather than the Persier (mind you I've not done it so what do I know) have a look at the Maine. one of my favourite dives. In fact I did 2 dives in a day last year that I'd rate in my top 5- Maine and Eddystone.

The Furious is a fast boat so looking at stuff further afield is not a bad idea.
Personally I'd look at:

Eddystone - Scylla (or JEL)
Maine - Hilsea Point (or Persier)
If you are up for a Fri dive then do the one you missed out on the JEL/Scylla option. Personally I like the Scylla as it's the diver's equivalent of swings and slides and roundabouts but the JEL is a cracking pokey lifey camera dive.

or you could completely ignore me and tell me to eff off. Which would be perfectly understandable too.

Just a shame that you've booked a fast, stable boat then are off to do a RIB- type dive.

It's like buying twin 12's and a couple of AL80 stages then doing a 6m dive in Stoney "for fun" (you would never see that now, would you)

[Paul Oliver]

Well the diving was based on club requests, the type of boat is based on me freezing on a Rhib there last march and the accom on offer.

Maine sounds very good though and i'm doing her in June

Well I will mostly be in Swanage that weekend on a club trip. But I could be tempted by a cheeky day of diving on the Friday though. Although this will probably require some sort of negotiation at home.

Yes its a long way to go for 2 days diving 3 would be much better
