Re: Big RED Bash 2006
Steve,
Can I be put down as a definite? As BSAC Direct member I would need to beg a place on a boat. As an almost soft southerner, lifts I can just about manage without ![]()

Re: Big RED Bash 2006
Latest Update
After a very successful meeting I can give you an update as to how things are progressing. Chris Holden our Expedition planning officer has identified 60 dive sites (wrecks) to be dived. Some from his first book, and others from his second book due for release 2 weeks after the event. It has therefore been decided that we will restrict numbers of teams taking part to 45. This will allow us contingency sites in case of inclemant weather preventing diving at some sides of the island. Accomodation is to be booked personally by teams, and once notified of their inclusion a list of accomodation and contact numbers will be distributed to enable early booking. NAS have agreed to run some prep courses in the NorthWest for members of teams wishing to get their NAS Part1 & Part2 qualifications. Demand for these courses will be high and therefore I will start a section for individuals wanting to register to attend. Cost will be approx £160. The course will be 3 days, 1 day Intro, and 2 days Part1, The expedition itself will count towards Part2 accreditation. I will give more info in due course. Secure Parking for Rhibs is being confirmed, at various locations around Anglesey. I am currently producing an initial team questionnaire which I will email to those teams taking part. I would be grateful if you could PM me with your email details so I can get this out ASAP. There will be a steady passage of information to teams enabling thorough planning to take place and therefore ensuring a successful event. Our medical officer will be holding a surgery saturday afternoon/evening to allow anyone with any injuries/ailments to attend and be treated. HM Coastguard at Anglesey are on board and fully supportive of the venture. Hyperbaric centre Murrayfield have been informed and are aware of what is happening. A Code of Conduct will be produced and distributed to all teams for the event. It is expected that you will all adhere to this code and behave impecably as you are ambassadors for BSAC on this venture. Merchandising is being decided upon, and will probably consist of Video CD of event - £5, Video on Pen Drive with Exped Logo - £10, Embroidered Polo Shirts - £15, Souvenir Mugs - £TBC Underwater Guide to North Wales Vol1 - A terrifically informative 240 page book by Chris Holden our Expedition Planning Officer , outlining a lot of the dive sites around Anglesey is available beforehand, price £16.95. Anyone wanting a copy of this book, let me know and I'll arrange for an Autographed copy to be sent to you, postage free. Orders for the second book will also be taken in advance, and personally Autographed copies sent out after publication. We are curently trying to secure a grant, towards the expedition. if this is sucessful the money after expenditure will be evenly distributed amongst members taking part to offset some of their costings. I will keep you updated of future developments in due course. I welcome any comments and suggestions Steve
