Good call.<\/p>\n<p>Last weekend we set off in high hope for the Dara. The sea state could hardly be called flat calm, but neither was it much to be concerned about. Unfortunately, when we dived the wreck we found water with as much clarity as pea soup. After a couple of minutes groping around in the murk (and avoiding some nets near the anchor), I decided that this was an accident waiting to happen and called the dive. As a consequence, we were back at the club rather earlier than anticipated.<br \/>\u200bMaybe next week, we\u2019ll have better luck.<br \/>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>Joining BSAC:<br \/>New members to BSAC can join Sharjah Wanderers Diving Club via the website, <a href=\"https:\/\/eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/\"><u>https:\/\/www.bsac.com\/membership\/select-branch\/<\/u><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Join BSAC and claim your free dive!
