Vobster Night Dive
We had a trip to Vobster for a night dive. It was a little later than planned due to the Dive Manager forgetting his suit and having to go back for it - he decided it was too cold to dive without it! This got another type of dive signed up in various qualification books.

Devon Weekend
Challaborough proved a bit of a challenge on Saturday with surf on the beach but we still managed to launch the boat with Tai's help. Dived the Persier but found we couldn't return to the beach for lunch so went to Mount Batten instead. On Sunday we used Mount Batten slip and dived Scylla, James Eagan Lane and the breakwater where we found the boiler of Yvonne and lots of life in all the nooks and crannies.

Party in the Park and Mexican Meal
The Party in the Park was a little wet but we are divers so not put off! We had a successful day with a competition to win a scuba diver (soft toy) and try dives. Afterwards we all went for a well earned Mexican meal.

Penzance Trip
Penzance dives included the Bucks, the Helopes, Alice Marie, Low Lee Reef and the Primrose. Alice Marie proved to be flat but an excellent wild life dive with congers, John Dory, lobsters, crabs, bib, wrasse, pollack, etc, etc.

Teignmouth and Dolphins
We had a great day out at Teignmouth diving the Geffion and the Bretagne. The weather was good to us and the seas were flat. The icing on the cake was the pod of dolphins that played around our bow!
