Since the SETT thread was getting rather long, thought I'd seperate this out.

Who wants to dive Saturday afternoon/evening?  who wants to dive on Sunday?

Skipper (Dive Eclipse) has suggested a night dive (10:30pm) on Mulbury.  Presumably only if we can get enough people together.

There are no spaces on his Saturday afternoon dives.

Sticking with Dive Eclipse for a moment, there are spaces available on the Sunday, thus:

10:15 - Waldrens.  10 spaces.
13:45 - Teapot.  7 spaces.

If we exceed these numbers, then we can look elsewhere, so that we can all dive  
  Sorry Skipper  


Saturday Night Dive? (12):
1. DanE

Sunday Waldrens (10):
1. DanE

Sunday Teapot (7):
1. DanE (I'm happy to give this up if someone who's made a long journey wants to dive)

So who else is in?  

Any suggestions for Saturday afternoon greatfully accepted.  I'm planning on visiting the Mary Rose.

I've just been to Dive Eclipse's website to check that the spaces were still there, but the site appears to be down.  Is it just me, or do others have this problem too?

There were already a few space on those dives booked, so if we exceed the remaining spaces we will have to look elsewhere.

I guess then since we've filled what were the spaces, could the remaining SETT divers confirm whether they want to dive on Sunday or whether they do not want to dive on Sunday, then we know whether to book or not.

We've now got more divers than space for the second dive on Sunday, I've had a couple of suggestions, but if someone can get something sorted for us, then please do!

If we're to use Dive Eclipse, we've now filled the first dive on Sunday and got more divers than space for the second dive on Sunday.

I've had a couple of suggestions for alternate boats and there are a couple of people willing to drop out, but it would be better if we could all dive so if someone can get something sorted for us, then please do!  (Note that I'm not a local and am new to diving - I've no idea where the good boats are!)

I'll be away 11th-18th, so if left to me, it won't get sorted until after that

This has all been quiet for a week, so I'm assuming this is it.  Unless anyone has any specific objections, I'll book Dive Eclipse for sunday, with Sean (local) and myself dropping out of the second dive.

I'll do this Tuesday evening.

Oh, here's the usual disclaimer that's popping up all over the place (Stole this one from digger
) :

It's important to me guys that you all understand you're responsible for your own dive, you're responsible for your own equipment, and just because I've started this thread and am booking the boat, it does not make me responsible for how you choose to dive, or your dive plan. In the event of non-payment or any sort of problem, I will be chasing you up as I'm sure will the boat owner...

I've just booked the places, thanks David.

So if everyone who hasn't yet responded with the details requested in the PM and isn't already registered at Dive Eclipse, please do so asap!

Think I deserve a little sleep, now.

Thanks,
dan.

[b said:
Quote[/b] (Reeve @ Jan. 20 2004,17:25)]Sounds great and am looking forward to it. Are there any options for the Saturday afternoon other than the Pub.. Was there not enough interest?

thx g.


p.s A little while yet but any thought from others on accomodation?
Reeve (& everyone).

The night dive is not going to go ahead.  

Saturday afternoon could involve a splash in Horsea Island (salty, max 6 or 7m).

Alternatively, a couple of people have mentioned shore dives, but I think that we would require a couple of experienced locals to guide us.  Any offers out there?

You'll notice that I always head for the easy options in these scenarios.

Right.  I hate organising things.  So, sadly DD won't be joining us.  Hopefully we'll see him at some point to buy him some beers for organising the SETT dives.

Anyways, there is now a space on the morning dive, if anyone would like a splash.  We're diving with Dive Eclipse, who's based at Selsey Bill.

Sunday Waldrens (1 space)
1. DanE
2. Reeve
3. Digger
4. dcrampt
5. Josie Chaplin
6. Gary Jeffries
7. Sean (Might drop out to make space)
8. Pete
9. Ian Baker
10.


Sunday Teapot (Full)
1. Reeve
2. Digger
3. dcrampt
4. Josie Chaplin
5. Pete
6. Ian Baker
7. DanE or Sean

Edit: Someone wanted a lift to Surrey on the Sunday, but i can't remember who.  I can still do this, but it may be after the second dive now.  Err, who was it?

Thanks,
dan.

Someone suggested doing the Selsey Lifeboat station, which looks like a pier type shore dive to me, though I've never done it.  Should be more interesting than Horsea

Dive Eclipse's T&C's

This is the last you'll hear from me about this until just before the event.  Probably
