Nice write up Andy

The day out was excellent, I got to get some good practice in for Tech 1 and also resolved some kit problems – valves in particular ( manifold serviced and Crysto lubed and Knobs replaced with originals, working perfectly now)
Weighting corrected for Sea dives now sporting a nice 1 Kg V weight and 2Kg adjustable Tail weight – Weight belt gone.

Both dives were very educational I always come away feeling good knowing I have learned something new either about procedures, skills or my self.

As Andy says Finnart is mainly used as a training area for clubs and schools, easy access, accessible year round with Sea temp normal not lower than 7 Degrees Celsius (warmer in the sea than on the surface

).

Finnart has absolutely stunning Scottish scenery on route and at site and its Free :D perfect for surface interval, so many vistas to admire.

Most excellent days diving with excellent company.
