Contact Mike Marsh (resting rifleman on these boards) or the lovely people at Divers Down.

I've tried to shot them using the marks in Dive Dorset and failed miserably. Although it was actually a great afternoon. It was a few years back, hot, sunny, and cruising round diving random marks hoping to find a tank is great fun.

They are a really nice little dive, but get busy if there are 12 on the boat!

They're also so small and you only need to be 3m out and you've missed them! (VIis dependant, of course!....)

Even with the marks and sounder the trick is, after dropping the shot to send someone down to do a circular search tie the shot in and send a bottle or marker up... cos it's a scenic most don't bother and miss it..
