well, nature just sometimes gets in the way.....

If we let nature prevent us from doing anything, the North and South pole wouldn't have been conquered and Everest would never have been climbed.

I suspect more people have stood on top of Everest, than have sat on the bottom of the English Channel and had that special moment. . . .

b: an unknown mark (bear in mind it could be a pile of stone and you won't know until you get down there)? Subject to distance the same as a known wreck, it gets the adrenalin flowing on the way out

2. Do you prefer old sailing ships?

3. Do you prefer old steamships? 1st choice

4. Not bothered what wreck i dive? What about warships, gets my vote every time

5. What's your preferred depth:

a: 10-20 metres
a: 20-30 metres 3rd
c: 30-40 metres 1st
d: 40-50 metres 2nd
e: 50-60 metres 4th
f: 60-70 metres
g: 70-80 metres
h: 80+ metres
Its all relative in choices, i don't really like modern wrecks, i like them with some history. I don't always do a 2nd drift dive and its very much how i rate dive 1 that dictates how much i am willing to pay.
