Tweed River Diving Day - Rescue Theme

Times: Meeting time: ; 10.00 briefing
Meeting Point: Car Park
Organiser: Ian Dale - See Member List for email address and phone number.

Diver grades: All levels welcome!

Training: The intent of the day is to build on the Rescue pool day skills and put them into a rescue context. There will be discussions and demos before the scenarios are carried out regarding de-kitting twin set divers (back mount and side mount) and hopefully implications of rescuing rebreather divers. High tide is 3pm so an early start is not necessary and a recreational dive after the scenario should be possible.

Equipment: Full SCUBA kit including your own tank and weights.  Divers should carry knife/line cutter, whistle, DSMB and reel and snorkel.

Hiring of Equipment: Contact Hannah for if you need to hire any club kit.  Alternatively you can hire tank & weights etc from Kirra Dive http://www.kirradive.com 

Costs: No costs (apart from your own costs of tank fills and carpooling if required).

Travel

Food: A BBQ style event will be organised with contributions from those partaking.
