Change of Pub

Unfortunately the Imp was closed last week and we are unsure if and when it will reopen. In the interim we will use the Steam Crane BS3 1HT (was Bar Salt ) to meet after the pool on a Tuesday night.

Training Day Turnout

We had fifteen people attend the training day last Sunday. Four trainees were introduced to open water and lots of training exercises took place. We also gained a Dive Leader.

Catch up

We have been enjoying our diving so much we forgot about posting news – oops! Here is a quick run down of the highlights over the past couple of months:

A week in El Gouna Red Sea - sun, sea, reef and wrecks

Long week end at Bovisand - James Eagan Layne, Scylla, Mewstone

Week end in Torbay - Babbacombe, Thatchers Rock drift, Brixham Breakwater, Trawler dump

Training at Cromhall producing one new Sports Diver - congratulations!

Advanced Diver Theory

Congratulations to one of our members on passing his Advanced Diver theory test last night. You're nearly there!

Easter Diving

The weather may not have been good for Portland but it was fine for Vobster on Saturday and fantastic for Cromhall on Monday. The diving season has definitely started!

National Diving and Activity Centre trip

The trip to the National Diving and Activity Centre was blessed with great weather although the water was a tad chilly at 7°C on the surface. Two people completed their dry suit course and another had his first dives with South Bristol Divers.

Dive Plans for 2015

We are planning lots of diving for 2015. Those that are definite are already on the calendar. Others are being added as they are confirmed. Can't wait to dust my fins off and get wet!

New Intake

Our new intake of trainees are settling nicely into the Ocean Diver course.

First dives of 2015

The first dives of the year have taken place with a visit to the NDAC where the water was a balmy 6C. Brrrrr!

More theory success

The Dive Leader trainees all passed their theory test last Tuesday. Congratulations!
