We are so screwed this gig has the potential to sink much lower than last years ................................................ ............If we're lucky

Safe diving,
Steve.

P.S. Dud, I'm in Portsmouth this weekend do you want me to put a good word in for you at the Kingfisher?

Don't forget we have Cathy along for Sat and Sunday. There is more potential to sink lower.

You are already in detention for last years diving crimes!

OK i am looking at fills at the moment and need an idea of what we will require, i think by the time we get in Friday we are going to be far too late for any Dive shop, even more so with the driving involved, so aiming for an Air fill from Pete's compressor is the probable option here, i will be either decant some rich mix from another tank then top up, or dive on 15's on day 2.

I'd suggest if you have the facility bring the gas for 2 days then do so.

Now Sat and Sun we will be needing fills, so could those listed below give me an idea of what they will be diving, as in tanks and air or Nitrox for filling on the Sat, those staying on for Monday i will aim at the same fill for Sun afternoon, if that makes sense

Paul Oliver - Twin 12L 32%
Steve S
Ian@1904
Jules
Tripplefin - 2 x 12L Nitrox
Pippa
Rebecca
Cathfish
Jeremy Dunning - 18L + 15L Nitrox

paul
I have 2 sets of twin sevens in which i would like 32% or whatever is right for the planned depths...

did we get anywhere with getting oxygen to do our own nitrox mixing using the skipper s compressor?

Any one got a decanting whip if I can borrow an O2 clean cylinder to bring some O2 in?

I am so rubbish on 21%!

This is what i will probably be doing for the Fri evening fill at least, we should have time Sat and Sun afternoons to get to a filling station no problem.

So yes there will be a whip available.
