Thanks Adrian,

Wish the report were for my benefit but I need to get to a pool fairly early tomorrow so can't get down there to appreciate it first hand.

Cheers,
Daz

Brixham breakwater - flat sea, but 2m viz max on ebbing tide. HT tomorrow about 12.00BST. We only went a few metres out, a max depth of 5m. Car park very busy, but there seemed to be a constant change of cars. Oh the joys of the tourist season

I required 12-14 lb on a belt, and doubled up ankle weights to get a horizontal trim with 50bar in the twins. Never thought I would regret having a neoprene suit. I could lower the tanks, but I can just about reach the valves as it is. Cylinders are valve upwards at the moment. Not sure what to do next.

Invert  

Stick a 5kg P weight on the twins and that should just leave a pound or two on your belt.  Alternatively go straight with a 6kg P weight.

The valve guard I use came from
Ritherdon

P.S Thanks for the report

Thought you'd say that!

I will give it some thought, but would like to see if I can get it sorted 'valve up first'. Then admit defeat and put them the other way.

Hope you have a good day if you have decided to come down.
