Exclamation Scapa Virgins 2007

26th August - 31st August

Scapa Virgins 2007


Yes folks ..by popular demand its back for another run ....in collusion with Garf and his magnificent "go with the flow tour 2007" the Stormdrift is running parallel with week 1 on a trip for the Scapa virgins out there (and those who have lost their cherry and liked it) ......

MV Stormdrift

While ships of the german fleet are most definatly on the agenda, this trip will work up gently starting on shallow, less challenging wrecks and working up to a dive on the battleship SMS Kronprinz Willhelm.

12 dives during the week are the norm but extras can be accomodated.
Air is free and Nitrox can be supplied from our onboard "fill where you sit" system making fills no problem.

costs
Places are £135.00 per diver for the weeks diving.
accomodation will be through shoreside providers and it is recommended you book asap to avoid the rush...it is your responsibility to find accom however i can PM you details of some of the better providers
A deposit of £40.00 is required to confirm your space


Boat loading on Saturday 25th August

Hmmmmmmmmmm well being one of those very people
well having just arrived back from the scapa virgins trip and skye trip and not even unpacked I'm putting my name down again, so you cant get more of a recommendation.
Neil has done a good trip report in the reports section for anyone who is interested and I'll probably get round to it all eventually

Hi, as I've never been to Scapa before, but heard loads about the diving there, can I ask what depth wrecks you'll be diving.

Although I'm a "Scapa Virgin" I don't mind up to 40m.

Ta!

Sounds like this will be just the thing for you then. Our illustrious skipper (or should that be infamous skipper) has designed this trip for those people who would like a non-technical trip to Scapa. Though, you will find that you recognise a number of the wrecks on the possible list if you have read about Scapa before.

Here is the thread for the 2006 trip, you will find some information on the type of diving and possible dives in the plan. YD gig "SCAPA VIRGINS" TOUR
