Dear Divers
I have Neptune booked out of Dover on Fri 10 June for a 2 dive day, you can book on either one or both dives. We will return to Dover between them with time for food and fills, both dives are return to shot and normal booking rules apply, if you book a space you are commiting to pay.
Dive 1 Is on the very big and intact freighter the Carmen, which is upright and 13m proud in 45m of water. She lies with the tide and is silt free with some very nice clean penetration points in the bows and plenty to rummage around in the superstructure area where the roof has been blown of by explosive demolition. My sketch below is a little off as the superstructure is more amidships.
Meet at 0815 for ropes off at 0845 and the cost is £25 for this dive.

Dive 2 is on the fully rigged early model steamship known as the Latona, which is is upright and intact in a max depth under the stern of 32m, with a general depth on the decks of 24m. Her bow is burried into a sandbank, and the stern with its single prop stands very proud, there is crockery under the sand in the holds and some nice rummaging around the exposed engine room area. The bell is still down there somewhere as well ;)
Meet is at 1500 for ropes off at 1530 and the cost is £20 for this single dive.
