well we got on the wreck of the Evelyn Rose
the shot was in 120m and we did 126m total bottom time 15mins but only on the bottom for 2/3mins
as it was only 10deg water temp so it was cold with just over 3h deco to do
the wreck is covered in dead man's fingers
the viz was good with a torch but i had one of my greenforce torches not turn on
i had a video camera clipped to me so got some footage of the wreck
the current hardly moved we unclipped the station from the shot and we hardly moved for around 20mins
in total in just over 3h we moved around 1/3 of a mile we had a few big ships go past but all was ok
Jon Adams, Gary Liddell and me that got to the wreck only Jon and me moved off the shot Gary came down just as we where on the way back up the shot but he saw the wreck
Ted's ccr failed in 10m of water so he got out!
also Gary's inspo lid came undone and Ted sorted that out for him before he descended
Jon Ted me Gary
Gary me Jon Ted
thanks to the skipper {Dave} on the Brendan for all the help![]()
Good work guys, i fancied this trip but unfortunatly i had an op (13th of this month) that clashed with the dates and inturn has put me out of the water for a month as well (doc's orders)
Glad your having fun whilst im banned for a month![]()
Ada post the vid footage M8, would like to see. As for the bottom time, it's short but sweet M8, and sub 100m in UK water is about all we can realistly get. Last month i did 115m for 2 min followed by 7min @ 102m, plus 5 min decent so left the bottom @ 14min with over 3hrs in the water, this was in the red sea with 24c water. so with 10c hat of to you boys
