March is in full swing

March is a busy month already and a sign of things to come.

The month kicked off with Pavvel arriving from the UK with a student to complete a Hammerhead mixed gas CCR course. During the week Pavvel was supported by the technical department in any way needed so that he could complete the course smoothly and efficiently and in the end it was enjoyed by all and it was good to catch up again.

Antonio started off the month with a set of PADI tec courses with Ihab…. the chief diving instructor of the Prince of Saudi Arabia!!!! After a great week and alot learnt Ihab has already booked to come out again in April!!!!!

Repeat guest Sam Ware is back out again gaining hours on his mini Meg and this time has had the pleasure of being guided by Werner Lau’s Jannik Farrup who was delighted to get away from snorkel boats and DSD’s and jump in on the JJ.
Upon his return (Holiday maker Jim Dowling :>>) from no other than the Galapagos 88| Jim was immediately back in the water on the Meg to take over from Jannik….Unfortunately a Danish snorkel boat needed his attention :crazy:.
Over the past week Jim has taken Sam to never dived before sites such as Eel Garden Canyon and also managed to fit in a day of scootering on the Werner Lau Teks resident scooters.

Instructor David ‘Dinky’ Armstrong has started another CCR course… this time back onto the Inpo and Evo units with guests Steve and Maggs Ashton. Both Steve and Maggs are highly experienced UK divers having completed their Open Circuit Trimix back in 2003 and now they feel it is time to take on diving with no bubbles.
Now 4 days into the course both are getting to grips with the units under the watchful eye of Dinky and today even admitted, Quote ‘ it was the first CCR dive i enjoyed…. i dont think i will sell the one i have already bought’ :yes:

The rest of the month is looking as busy as ever aswell.

Jim Dowling is starting and Advanced Nitrox with Sam Harrison who is the new Tornado Marine Fleet operations Manager and then straight after is completing another Advanced Nitrox and Helitrox course with James Cronin.

Antonio is completing some PADI TecRec workshops with Nikko who was today part of the thistlegorm group.

David ‘Dinky’ Armstrong is starting a JJ-CCR course straight after the inspo course with new guests Frank and Sean who have just got brand new units from JJ in Denmark and then, no rest for the wicked :> , off to Hurghada for a deep south Safari and to teach none other than the owners of MV Tala the JJ-CCR along with a Danish diving magazine!!!! More news to come after the trip when we can release more information on rebreather safari’s on MV tala!

Keep posted for pictures and updates coming very soon.
