Our first dive in Dublin Bay

With weather like that you should have gone to the Vanguard

We were blown out in the North.

Thanks for that, at 49 mtrs a bit rich for my blood as yet but it looks like a great ship with plenty of historical interest to boot.

Someday maybe.

The Vanguard is a protected wreck ie over 100years old.
Its a cracker dive, the sea bed is littered with brass - to look at only...............

We used trimix as the viz is normally crap + it gave us a clear head and one thing less to worry about.
