Sounds like I made a good call on that one then, funny cos usually I get/bring the bad weather with me.

OK I'll go for the hardboat/lift and jetty in that case, &nbsp;

We had a similar experience of that in Lanzarote, as you say a good reminder.

A tail lift, now there's a great way to get back into a boat. I was however talking to a skipper in Plymouth who has a lot to do with the professional boatmans association (PBA). He was saying that the insurance implications for them are immense!

Hi Mat. My son and I did the Thursday rib dives with all the loading and unloading capers you have heard. He found the surface conditions a bit off-putting but stuck it out to get his AOW. Like you I found Porthkerris to be well run and I will definitely be back.

Richard,

Small world, 2 sets of people, turn up at a dive centre, &nbsp;then end up in the same forum!!

I don't know about you, but I thought the second dive was far too over crowded. I don't know what the licence is but I reckon they were pushing it!

I've just got to comment on the RIB/hardboat issue. You've been on the wrong hardboats, Matt! I'll dive from either but a good hardboat is far more convenient and comfortable, in my opinion, even without a tail-lift. Actually, I've never dived on a boat with a tail-lift. I agree that many ladders are a pain in the a--e, though. In fact, that's one of my pet subjects. People spend hundreds of thousands buying and fitting out diveboats and then put crappy ladders with narrow, slippery rungs and hopeless handrails and often hanging at the wrong angle on them. Grrrrrrrrrr!
