I dunno. Four scrubber fills at £10 per time. Total gas cost would be about £30 (assuming mix for everything). Fraction of cell replacement is about £20. Depreciation about £30.

Call it £100.

CCR has very few variable-with-dive costs. But the fixed cost of buying the thing, and the annual maintence is the big whack. There are dozens of threads on YD about RB costs so have a seacrh

I was up there just over a week ago (7th to 14th) on MV Karin, we were hoping to do a lot of deeper stuff, but unfortunately the weather wasn't good so we had to do too many dives inside The Flow, but I have listed some of the run times as you requested.

Also did the Strathgarry (57 metres) with run time of 95 minutes, and Sword Dance (80 metres) with a run time of 120 minutes. Unfortunately we didn't get to the Pheasant and King Eddie, where the run times would have been 3 hours.

As for costs incurred:
Gas - about £25-£30
Lime - 5 fills, so about £45 (could have been less but dumped lime on 2 occasions when we were planning to do deeper the next day, but ended up in the Flow again)
