General

We have a number of members who are boat skippers and they are offering to take members on dive trips. Members should read the Boat trips section of the Articles of the Club. Boats include Ginger Tom skippered by Steve Hacker and Flat Calm skippered by Ernie Martinez, both at Brixham. Trevor Wiltshire has Tigress based at Portland, contact him at Aquaturtle. Mark has a rib at Teignmouth.

Membership fees are paid in April. Membership fees are due by 30 April 2012. Fees will remain at £35.00 for the year, guest swimmers/snorkellers/divers fee will be £3.00 per session. Non-diving partners will remain at £15.00 for the year. Children under 16 are free if accompanied by parent who is a member. A membership list is being compiled and should be available at the end of June. Next year's prices will be reviewed later in the year.

Training
We get a lot of requests from people asking about scuba training. The club does not do training itself, however, there are a number of members who are qualified to teach. A list of instructors who belong to the Club can be provided on request.

Wednesday Club
Wednesday Club dives can take place any working day, Monday to Friday. The name was coined as the first few dives were always on a Wednesday. For those of you who are fortunate enough to be able to get time off work mid-week there will be diving trips arranged for Chesil, Portland, Babbacombe, Brixham etc. Please note that payment will be required in advance of each dive. Usually, 6 divers or more are required to put on a dive.

The next dive will be announced on the Hot News page.

If you would like more information, please contact John Hammond, or see John or Andy at the pool.
