11 Apr 1987 | Calve Island Cliffs | NE corner of Calve Island | Mull | Scotland | 36 | 14 | 17 | Iain Hosking, Phil Hume |  |
Conditions couldn't be more different from this morning. Late evening in a cloudless blue sky and almost flat calm. Took Phil down for his first dry suit dive (using my old Dunlop). Cliffs as impressive as always - covered in Devonshire cup coral, sea squirts and sponges. Curious fan-like formations (bendy, like bracket fungus) and a cushion star 5 inches across and bright orange. Dead men's fingers not too common. | |||

38 | 10 | 12 | Iain Hosking, Phil Hume | |
Phil had a 2 minute time penalty, making this a short dive. We had time to get to our planned depth and back up to untie the line. Swam under the hull. Brilliant weather - bright, sunny and calm. Few pints in Salen afterwards. | ||

17 Apr 1987 | Rondo | Eileanan Glasa, Sound of Mull | Mull | Scotland | |
47 | 13 | 23 | Iain Hosking, Phil Hume | |
Perfect weather conditions for this dive - flat calm and blazing hot. We didn't hang about, but gnashed straight on down to the bows in 4 minutes flat. Depth was 47m inside the wreck. Leisurely trip back up to the stern. Stops not too boring. |
