All 3 of you did really well, and it was good to see a extremely good team working well together down at 44m on that lovely little Paddle Steamer we dived.

Well done guys!

Here's a couple of stills:

Thanks folks, we had a real blast and it was a great course! Aquanauts was a cracking place to do the course with everything we needed pretty much to hand and excellent staff on hand. We will try and do a little write up, honest

Once we'd relaxed a bit and remembered Rich was going to behave it was a lovely dive. Definitely going to have to come down and visit for a few more trips I think

Good job

Well done guys and nice too meet you albeit very shortly.

I think you were quite lucky with the fabulous weather and everything but Plymouth really is a nice place for some good diving.

Hope to see you on some trips soon,
