Scapa on Valkyrie - 29/6 to 4/7 2008

This is a trip that was originally being organised by JAG, but he and a few others have had to pull out so we have some spaces going which we need to fill before we can confirm the booking.

The dates are 29th June to 4th July 2008 and we will of course be using the best dive boat in Scapa - our very own Hazel and Helen's Valkyrie. Accommodation will be on the boat.

We will be doing 6 days diving - 3 in the Flow doing the wrecks of the German High Seas Fleet and 3 days around the Northern Isles. Whilst in the Flow we will berth at Stromness but up at the Northern Isles it will be true liveaboard diving with all meals provided.

The cost of the trip will be £295.50 for the boat for the week. You will need to add to that your travel costs, which will include a ferry to Stromness from Scrabster (about £30 return) and your drive to Scrabster.

Because of the people dropping out we've kept Hazel hanging on for a while now, so I'd like to fill these last few places quickly. I'm banking on us having a belting summer next year and I think this might be some real classic UK diving! Don't miss out!

1) Mark Davies £295.50 paid
2) Reikimaster £300 paid
3) Alistairb £295.50 paid
4) Rob Dobson £295 paid
5) Simon £295.50 paid
6) SPACE AVAILABLE £295.50 paid Joe
7) Simon A £295.50 paid
8) Yazzyfooty £295.50 paid
9) Scribley £295.50 paid
10) SPACE AVAILABLE Deposit paid - £75 Twinset & Wing
11) Mcnasty £295.50 paid
12) Kath2407 £295.50 paid

Okay, we seem to have a trip!

I've been chatting to Hazel and this is the plan. We are going to plan to start from Stromness and do the Fleet first. We'd then go onto the Isles and finish at Kirkwall. However the week prior to ours she is sailing from Kirkwall so it's possible the weather could prevent her getting back to Stromness. In that event she will arrange a taxi transfer to Kirkwall for us and we'll set off to do the Isles. Whichever end we start at we will be at the mercy of the weather as to whether we get out of (or into) the Flow. It's UK diving, so we can't guarantee anything. We will hope to do a bit of both but we need to be prepared to accept that we might just do one or the other.

It's time for deposits so I'll be sending you all a PM with details before the end of the week.

Okay guys, I shall be looking forward to your deposits coming in.

Rather than hitting you for the rest of the balance all in one go I'll be contacting you every couple of months inviting you to send another instalment of similar amount, to spread the pain and avoid those last minute drop-outs that tend to occur on these trips when someone gets asked for a good chunk of cash they might have forgotten they had to pay! Of course, if you'd like to manage your own savings scheme I can send account details (some already have them) for you to pay money into as and when. It's a seperate account set-up specifically for managing monies for dive trips, so don't worry - your money won't disappear into the general beer-fund! Just PM me for the account details if you don't already have them.
