Clare had organised a trip out on Wey Cheiftan 3. It really was a stunning boat. It's a big catamaran and has loads of space including two massive benchs for kitting up which are actually inside!

There were quite a few of the usual DIR suspects on board

We were also joined by Frank and Justin of E-Aquanauts along with Mark Powell. First dive was the St.Dunstan which was a relatively intact wreck absolutely swarming with fish life. The team consisted of myself, Clare, Fraser and Mark Powell. The visibility was good and we had an excellent tour round led by Mark. We did a couple of swim throughs and passed through the engine room and round the boilers. Really stunning dive well worth diving again.

Second dive of the day was on a Bombardon unit. This one was outside the harbour. It was mostly buried with only about 2m of it standing proud. It had a large trawl net covering it which we had to be careful to avoid. Not a brilliant dive but hey it's more practise.
