What are the procedures for the sounding of fog-horns?
It is remarkably foggy outside and there are occasional fog-horn blasts.
They seem to be about half an hour or so apart and a few long blasts in a
row...

OK - let's have some candid views on some of the larger day-dive operators.
Any views? Looking for:
- Overall professionalism
- Standard of boats, dive platforms, food, etc.

If you want to make a training dive in say, an inland quarry (between 2
AOW/sports divers) and wanted to practice various drills, what drills would
you cover, and in what order.?

I'm looking at doing the BSAC Ocean diver course at RoHo. Has anyone had any
experience good or bad with the school?
Cheers,
Jeff

Now that's what I call a lift.
And in Falmouth as well.....

I've complained before about watch company meters when it
comes to depths and I'm pleased to say my new watch (the
last one went mad) is a bit better.
The manual lists 5 grades

Lee,
Never having been in anything like what's hitting there
hope all's OK. Pictures are spectacular though ( I doubt you'll agree)

Ok,

I am keen to buy a regulator etc, as I have done a number of dives
now, and love it!
I am trying to get my head around the great variety on offer -
prices/quality etc, and have sort of settled on either a Scubapro MK25

Just a snippet of info for anybody that is interested.
Since Malta joined the EU in May, there is no longer a requirement for
a dive permit or medical to dive in Malta.  All you have to do now is
show your qualifications and fill in a self cert form.

Would it be possible to dive with a both handheld VHF radio and GPS,
protected by those waterproof plastic packet things that you can buy -
i.e. would they survive the depth/water pressure?
And would this have helped the diver who were mislaid at the weekend?

I have put some new images from two wrecks in Kirkenes, Norway at my site
www.ahomaki.net/wrecks/norway.
Some macro shots from the same location to follow whenever I get the time...
Share and enjoy,
