Dive Day Rosta
DIVE DAY ORGANISER ROSTER
Hi All, Committee had a discussion at the weekend about trialling out a Roster system for Dive Day organising. Essentially, all those who are Sports Dive or above, are being asked to volunteer to organise a club dive day.
In summary, what this comprises is:
1. A roster is put together of all those who can / want to organise a dive day
2. The dive day is for all club members, and can comprise of a shore, boat, pond or a combination of any of the afore kinda dive.
3. The dive day can comprise 1, 2 or more dives,
The small print however:
1. Once rostered, then if you cannot make or organise a dive for that weekend, it is your responsibility to swap with someone else within the club
2. Sports divers or equivalent, who are rostered, will be appointed a DL or above, to assist them in organising the day
And thats about it... the boat can be anyones boat, so no restruictions if people wish to organise an event of someones private boat or a boat we haven't used before. Shore dives can be anywhere within reason, of Melbourne CBD, noting that we have to be back at the Docs for the club meeting, and yehh thats about it.

CDAA Deep Cavern and Cave courses
Club Weekends away - with the CDAA !
The Club is planning a couple of weekends in Mount Gambier where you can either
a) Get your CDAA Deep Cavern rating - this is the first step in being able to dive CDAA rated sites. Qualifies the recipient to dive to 40m, and within-the-light-zone penetration of CDAA rated caverns and sinkholes (see www.cavedivers.com.au for exact qualifications). Normally takes two weekends (one in Melbourne and one in Mt G) or can be run 'all in one hit' over in Mt Gambier
or
b) Get your CDAA Cave rating - for those who are already Deep Cavern qualified and with the necessary dives, you can enroll in the Cave course which qualifies the recipient to dive CDAA rated cave sites (penetration to 1/3 of air, no restriction to be too narrow as to prevent two divers running side-by-side, and allowing them to turn together - again, see www.cavedivers.com.au for full details)
or
c) those with a rating to go diving either during the training courses or at different sites
Basically, if we can get enough people together, we should be able to negotiate cheaper courses. And with a group of us together we should also be able to get cheaper group accomodation.
So.....if you are up for a laugh and a weekend away whilst simultaneously increasing your diving skills (use of reels, improving your buoyancy, dealing with u/w incidents in situations that prevent direct access to the surface etc etc) then contact either Neil R or myself
DATES: to be arranged, however currently planning towards September at some stage.
c'mon, have a giggle !

Magazines
It became apparent at the club meeting on the weekend that the monthly magazines have gone missing (again). We should have received the February edition at the Scuba Doctor several weeks ago, but it has not arrived. We have requested that the February magazine be reshipped and are investigating if we also have a problem for March.
Everyone should have received up to and including the January edition to their registered home address. If you did not receive these please let Neil know.
Sorry everyone for this continuing stuff up, we are doing our best to rectify the problem.
regards
the committee

Historic Ship Wrecks Day - 12th April 2008
DIVE DAY BEEN RE-CONFIRMED - RE-REGISTRATION IMPORTANT
Saturday 12th April 2008
First dive: Ingoldsby reef that has the Inverlochy smashed up on it. – Depth max 15m, is 2km of shore,, simply not dived.. this is a site NO ONE EVER goes to apart from the cray fisherman. It’s a reef that sits proud on the sea with a wreck smashed up on one side of it. Its apparently dripping with marine life, but its just not spoken about. (backup if the weather is too bad to get out to this is Point Danger a wall that sits in 30-35mish rising up to 10m. Apparently its got overhangs galour, and this wall runs for km’s.)
[Edit: Please take note that there is a weather warning for the ingoldsby reef. Anything but good conditions will make this site very surgey.]
Second dive: 13th Beach. It’s right in the marine park of Bells Beach Torquay way. Depths range from 15-26m. Spots can be choosen to suit the persons preference.
Third dive: Point Impossible. As it says on the tin. This is apparently the beez neez of dives in the area. It sits shallow in 8-10m, hence its the last dive of the day.
Costs (for BSAC members only): $45 a dive or $85 for two. 3 dives $125 for non BSAC members, $50 a dive or $95 for two. 3 dives $140 (payment in advance please)
Aifill's available from Jeff as well.
SHOULD PEOPLE FANCY A SECOND DAY OF DIVING
Sunday 13th April 2008
10am – Euro – book on as normal.
Or
Shore dives – t.b.c Still in the preperation stage.
So if interested, contact Neil, and pay your money into the account.
