M2
Aeolian Sky
UB74
Black Hawk

any of the subs; Sidon, UB74, A3

thinking about it, the A3 is a nice dive, small WWI sub

I'll add another request for the Sidon

Cheers,
Simon

Do we have an approximation of depths involved?

Wednesday:

Dive 1: M2 (35m)
Dive 2: ??

Thursday:
Dive 1: ??
Dive 2: ??

Please fill in the gaps.

Please bear in mind we won't be returning between dives. If we can't come to an agreement I suggest we rock up for an 11am departure on the Wednesday and take it from there.

Cheers,

Ian

Who staying where on the night between? How far is it from the pub? are there any spaces?

Is anybody driving past Guildford and could offer a list or would any one like a lift?

Fin


Ps not really fussed what we dive as long as it's wet!

Fin, PM sent re lifts ....

I'm going to be giving the YMCA a call this morning to try and book me and Andrea in, so I'll let you know if there are any spaces left - they've got 10 twin rooms, so I'd think there'd be a fair chance mid-week.

Oh, and there are 2 pubs within easy walking distance, both of which do food.

sidon is similar to the M2 at about 32/33m, A3 is a little deeper at 38m max

EDIT: just a thought but if slack is around 16:00, couldn't we go for morning slack at 10:00 depending upon what we're diving?

Ok, hows about we stick to Wednesdays plan of the M2 followed by an other, speak to Smudge on the boat and arrange Thursdays then?

Hi gang,
as its pretty close to leaving i will intervene here. We will go with Wednesday plan and decide then about Thurday. Tides down here can be a bit of a problem due to the area getting a double tidal curve and an Army tank range that is open during the week but anything can be done. Nitrox mixes etc. can be sorted out on Wednesday afternoon/Thursday morning for the second days diving so just aim to turn up with gas for a 32m dive and a second dive around the 18m mark on Wednesday. Nice sunny weather and calm seas has been booked in advance so dont forget sunglasses!!!! See you all soon.
Best regards
Smudge
