Marine Updates
Welcome All, It’s difficult to keep a diver occupied when the seas are against us and we are land based. As an active club though members keep busy with other interests and report daily on developments in the marine sector in the UAE and further afield. Some are very amusing at times as you will see below. Locally, […]
Dive Club Update
Welcome All, The shores of the UAE are taking a battering at the moment with high pressures from all directions and not the type of sea going dive conditions that you touch with a ‘barge pole’. Although the rescue barges will probably be busy this week along the coast co-ordinating recovery of those washed […]
Inchscape 10 And Deep Reef – Fujairah
Welcome All, Rather busy this week with day to day life so catching up with some Dive Logs. With some much needed de-fizz a few of us headed to the east coast for some commercial outfit diving. Many of our BSAC 406 divers were absent with leave this week which left no Boat Officer to do […]
Calm Seas And Stone Anchors
Welcome All, Unfortunately, we didn’t get the numbers last weekend. What with Mike heading back to deepest UK and others either working or doing other things, we were compelled to have a lie-in. This wasn’t too much of a punishment, truth be told, but it was a shame as conditions were looking very reasonable. We nevertheless […]
Enigma
Slightly belatedly, we got 2019 up and running with a trip to the Jumbo. It was a full compliment of eight divers on SP125 and we were probably lucky there wasn’t more as SP312 is still undergoing repairs and is therefore unavailable. It’s never nice to turn people away. It was an uneventful trip out […]
406 Are In The House – Camaraderie With Style And Bubbles
Hi all, 2019 has got off to a bit of a slow start with the weather playing havoc with our dive planning. To fill the void last Friday, we decided a brunch was in order so we convened at around midday at the Ajman Hotel (the one that used to be the Kempinski), the unfortunate […]
2018 Review – Welcome 2019
Welcome to 2019 where ever you are in the world. Before we embark on our new adventures for 2019, we’d like to share a snapshot of 2018. Firstly thanks are due to those who kept the show on the road this year: Before Ian’s log though, on behalf of all the members / non members […]
Happy New Year From BSAC 406
Hi allAs promised, Mike got a boat away last weekend to the Dara. I don’t know the full story, but I gather the viz was fair to middling and some new nets have appeared. The second dive was spent cutting some of them off. Thus ends the 2018 diving season. Hopefully 2019 starts next Friday.———————————I […]
Merry Christmas From BSAC 406
No diving again last weekend. With the holiday season approaching, there are currently too many people away to get a viable dive going but Mike will be running one next weekend if there are enough takers. Never ones to waste time, Mike and Brian got busy with the boats. In Mike’s words:Maintenance report. 312 got […]
Merry Christmas From BSAC 406
Hi allThere was no diving last weekend for various reasons, possibly sheer exhaustion caused by excessive partying. Our own Christmas dinner took place and it was excellent. The event was arranged at slightly short notice so I hope this didn’t cause anyone to miss it. It didn’t seem like it anyway – we had a […]
