We are planning a dry dive at the Midlands Diving Chamber in Rugby.
(November) and the cost is £40.00 for the 50m dive.
Some members of the club have had the fantastic pleasure of experiencing being down at 50 meters in a chamber and the narcosis effects it can have on you as a diver. It's great fun and you can log the experience as a dive, so if you fancy a dry dive please contact me to arrange a date.

For the 50m dive:

• The divers fill in a self-declaration medical form. Any questions ticked YES must be covered by a Dive Doctor's clearance form. (These can be done at MDC with enough notice).
• Divers change into scrubs (provided).
• After a briefing, divers (maximum of 10) enter the chamber accompanied by an MDC supervisor.
• The chamber is compressed to 50m.
• After maximum bottom time is reached, decompression begins.
• Divers decompress on a 100% oxygen.
• On coming out of the chamber there will be a post-dive briefing and time for questions and logbook stamping.

Please remember that like a wet dive, a dry dive does carry a risk of DCI, although an extremely minimal one as the environment is carefully controlled. Please report any abnormal symptoms immediately.

A dive weekend is planned for all club members who fancy a dive off the boat, family members as ever are more than welcome to come along  for a thrilling high speed trip on the boat. The last boat weekend in June was a great success with over 29 dives completed by 8 divers on the HMS Scylla and the James Egan Layne, the vis was perfect as was the weather and sea conditions.

Check out the Links for some fantastic web pages on both wrecks that were dived.


Hotels will need to be booked soon, so if you could contact either myself or Dean so arrangements can be made.
