Advanced fault diagnosis.

Personally I think the starter is worn out. Should be IP rated to 45m???

 

[snowhead]

At least you wouldn't need a ladder to change the starter..
100kg of lead in your toolbag should get you down there pretty quick.

 

[Dave Appleby]

I'll have you know I only use 6kg!

It's actually the Zenobia in Cyprus. Will try and get a photo of the electrical control room if we can get that far inside.

Lol.

Lol.

Been working hard on the photos this week....

The history of the wreck is amazing. She went down in 1980 in very odd circumstances.

However, tough to not to kick up silt.

Yeah, similar here.

Just thought you knew Craig - he is a PADI instructor, often using Preston Hill quarry - I use that for the shallow training stuff when I do trimix courses.

Not using Air tanks but beer tanks. Lol

Yeah quadmix is pretty good

Start with oxygen, helium, nitrogen, and vick's vapour rub:

That's Scapa flow on the 100th anniversary - I was full of a cold but still wanted to dive - Vicks does work!!


Normally quadmix is oxygen, helium, nitrogen, and the aroma of the night before's beer!

I know Craig from the Protect Preston hill group.

Looking at your quals. Ever tried cave?

Yes, used to work in florida a bit, so did a few caves, fantastic experience, but too expensive to travel for just a few dives, and in the uk caving is so different - there are a few mines which are similar to those caves in florida etc, but I tend to prefer wreck diving.

This weekend past we dived the forth, one of the k-boats and the Avondale Park (last ship sunk by a u-boat - just after the end of ww2).

So many wrecks, and comparatively easy to get to around Scotland that it's something one can do most weekends.

One of my friends emigrated to Cyprus, but ended up coming back to Scotland partially because of the diving here, in Cyprus there really is only the Zen' - which he knew too well!

Never been myself - hope you are enjoying it, your photos look great.

Whoever said water and electricity doesn't mix!!!!?

Just back.

They are dropping wrecks everywhere at the moment. Also Green Bay north of Ayia Napa is an amazing dive for Turtles, they are magnificent and don't give a ----?

We had one 3 feet from us doing the turtle equivalent of the bear scratching on a tree.

4 last gratuitous photos.

The drop down the lift shaft into upper cargo and under one of the lorries. Remember she's on her side so the lift is actually a horizontal swim.
