18 Jun 1984 | Dunbar | South side of the Firth of Forth | Forth | Scotland | 15 | 40 | 40 | Iain Hosking, Geoff Hide, Jenny Clough, Keith Chidwick, Mike Weitzner |  |
2nd class tests with Mike Weitzner, Geoff, Jenny and Keith Chidwick. Took boat outside harbour and did tests around rocks. Did assisted ascents, underwater navigation, low visibility search (for a fisherman's creel!) and tow (easy). Attempted rope search but current, floating line and light shot made it impossible to complete. | own | ||

Sunny, windy day. Jenny led the way out to Cathedral underwater. Saw wrasse and school of saithe, then headed in towards harbour wall down a series of gullies. Four large lobsters, squat lobsters, various types of anemone. Noticed small shells on kelp with iridescent stripes. Vis good - about 30 feet. Did roped tender. | own | ||

20 | 30 | 30 | Iain Hosking, Geoff Hide, Jenny Clough | |
Late start, so didn't get in the water until after 4pm, by which time the wreck had all but disappeared. Good dive, bit murky, especially through the mine tubes. Sporadic squalls. Didn't get back to Kyleakin until about 6pm, by which time Andy's car had all but disappeared. LW 3pm. Springs (equinoctial). | own + Ewan's twin 40s. Usual weight. |
