Not so much to say this week. It’s not that the club hasn’t been diving, it’s just that I wasn’t on board.
Two weeks ago, a party of eight went out to the Nasteran and Victoria Star and all I really know is that the viz wasn’t great. Last Friday was more interesting. Another full boat went out to Ras Al Khaimah to check out some new coordinates that we’ve come by. It’s a bit of a long drive to get the boat up there but we’re always in the market for fresh shipwrecks to dive on. This is an added feature to join our club. As a club we research the new wrecks and monitor developments. This in the past has proven to be an added bonus as we can log the changes to the site and record the marine life that starts to form. For now however, as regards the wrecks, there’s good news and bad news. The wrecks were all there, exactly at the stated positions but they’re all barges and not especially interesting. Again, the viz wasn’t up to much. We hope for better in the coming weeks. From Petra of DSDC: I was going to ring fence 8 places for 406 for the DSDC dhow trip on 21st September until 10th September. Do let me know names and emails of anyone who is interested in joining us. We would love to see you on board. -------------------------------- The Land Rover is currently undergoing repairs but should soon be up and running with a new registration and a new lease of life. Thanks to Mike and Brian who’ve done the running around on this one. --------------------------------- As always, don’t forget that you need correct and current diving insurance. Please see the DAN insurance website for more information: https://www.daneurope.org/home ---------------------------------- With a bit of space to fill on a slow news week, do you recognize this diver, pictured many moons ago with his sister? He’s been here within the last ten years or so, so those whose memories stretch back to the club’s beginnings needn’t waste time taxing the brain cells! No further clues!
