I coxed for Richard Evans who was our Dive Manager for today with Richard Jones as assistant cox and just 3 divers in our mighty Ribcraft.

Richard’s plan was to do a MOD 2 dive on the wreck of the Lord Stonehaven out of Plymouth in 60+m but maybe the rubbish weather over the past couple of days put members off despite an excellent forecast for today (Beaufort 2 gusting 3 from the North West). As of yesterday evening we were down to just 3 divers so Richard opted for plan “B” and go to the Drop-Off around 30m at the top to 40m at the bottom. We put the 3 divers in together and Richard Jones & I enjoyed some autumn sunshine awaiting the return of the divers. They reported viz of a dusty 5m with lots of life seen, a SUPER morning out which we all enjoyed.
