Scuba Forum / UK Scuba / September 2004Free spaces : Selsey 5 October
Hi all, My buddy and I are looking to book Dive Eclipse out of Selsey on Tuesday 5 October to do the NAB tower (around 12ish) and Mulberry harbour (night dive 1830ish). There's 3 of us so far, we need at least one more to make this a goer. Anyone interested?

It is the only rib Ive been on that I would enjoy going on again. might be worth trying Pete. David >>>Hi all, >>> [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > >might be worth trying Pete.

Pete S. > He can make all the drinks he likes, but I wouldn't set foot on that > boat if you paid me. is it the lack of a lift to get out of the water that you object to ? just curious as to where the problem is.

No lift? Get in off the beach? It's a rib? Well apart from that lot, I really don't know where to start. Well I do really, but I won't.

It is like saying Stoney Cove is a sh1thole, but in the winter if you want to go training, where is better inland? <Snip> >As RIB diving goes it is the best boat to do it on.

And I'm sure that dragging your kit down the beach at Selsey is great. Gone are the days when I checked my regs for pebbles off that beach. But for just a couple of quid extra (locally), and less money (Penzance) you can go out on a hard boat from a Marina/harbour. And, if you are doing deep techie stuff, many cylinders, with a camera, a rib off a beach is totally unsuitable. Pete S. >And, if you are doing deep techie stuff, many cylinders, with a >camera, a rib off a beach is totally unsuitable. Wind up aside, this is the point really, RIB diving is relatively straight forward within the recreational range. Extended range stuff requires too much effort when doing it from a RIB. -- Laz Signature~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A foolproof method for sculpting an Elephant: First, get a huge block of marble.

I have done a 93m dive off a RIB, although we did have a hardboat as backup :) Gordon >>>And, if you are doing deep techie stuff, many cylinders, with a >>>camera, a rib off a beach is totally unsuitable.

I am one of those people that is happy to let someone else hump their kit around. Fortunately, one of my buddies is a brickie and he just isn't happy if he's not humping something around (usually it's a heavy pint of Guinness). -- Laz Signature~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A foolproof method for sculpting an Elephant: First, get a huge block of marble.

Never thought I'd see you with that one! ;-) Danny (Running) The box said windows 98 or better, so I installed Linux Header is false, correct is Danny at danshome dot org All, Can we drop this one? Pete and I go back about 8 years, we fell out for personal reasons some time ago. Its personal - and does not need to be discussed on this or any other forum! Pete, thank you for being reserved - much appreciated. >>Well apart from that lot, I really don't know where to start. Well I >>do really, but I won't. [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >Pete, here is the award for self control! Never thought I'd see you >with that one! ;-) Cheeky git. I could give a list of keywords for you to piece together. Or maybe I could use short phrases? That would be fun wouldn't it? Now where shall I start?

Can't do Oct 5th, but the dive-eclipse site lets you book a dive with fewer than the required number and then if anyone else fancies it they'll book on.
