I know some of the techincal deep divers using trimix and rebreathers have been mapping out the wrecks and getting some top under water footage. Hope they going to present that as well.

Try again
Hi all
I just went through the process of registering more reason was to get the email address of Jeremy Green, so I could invite him down to our club and do a presentation since the lecture was booked out. Well to my surprise I got a confirmation of a seat for the lecture. So my recommendation is... have another go if you are interested.
Mind you watch this space because i will be following up Jeremy and the museum about the possibilty of another presentation.
Cheers Rhyss
