New Weymouth attractions

Received this yesterday. Sounds interesting.

The Weymouth and Portland Dive Charter Association (WPDCA) has released
publicly an initiative that will result in a series of totally new
underwater attractions for divers. It is the intention to introduce these
over the next four years. The project involves creating four new dive sites
in the Weymoith and Portland area: An underwater sculpture trail along the
Portland Breakwater; an 'artificial reef' styled from a railway carriage
wreck in or near Portland Harbour; an artificial reef so-called the "ECO
Mile" outside the harbour and a *New Wreck* formed by the sinking of an
appropriate vessel (which very well be a former prison ship).

Pls read more at http://www.divedorset.com and
http://www.island-diving.org/ (WPDCA web pages).

Sounds good to me.

I would suspect the statue trail along the breakwater will attract a fair amount of silt

Something in Balaclava Bay would be nice, sheltered, good depths for the inexperienced and lessons, easy run out too and away from the silt
