I joined PSBSAC in 1993, coming from Totnes SAC. With a longstanding interest in maritime archaeology, I was attracted to the club by the Metta Catharina project, which had been running for 20 years at the time. The project involved the survey and excavation of a timber-hulled vessel which sank in 1786. This project introduced routine nitrox diving and rebreathers into the club. When the project came to its conclusion in 2005, I took a more active role in other areas including the management of the club.
I have been diving since 1969 and have enjoyed many different aspects of diving over more than 45 years, particularly instructing and introducing people to new experiences. I completed my BSAC instructor training course in 1972, subsequently qualified as a First Class Diver in 1982 and have since progressed through instructor training to National Instructor in 1998.
My working life has been closely linked with diving, initially as a diver/supervisor in the Royal Navy (>1973), then moving on to commercial inshore work and finally to police diving (>1979). Since 2004 I have employed full time as Training Officer at the Diving Diseases Research Centre, now DDRC Healthcare. Over the years, I have had the good fortune to dive all around the world from Arctic Norway to Australia and still enjoy returning to the great variety of dive sites around the British Isles.
Plymouth Sound is a very active club with much to offer, including a wide range of local diving, trips away and social events.
My passion is deep wreck diving on my rebreather regularly organising this sort of diving for the branch along with shallower wreck diving.
