FINDING NEMO?

NEMO 33

The worlds deepest pool

It just had to be done, didnt it, well it's in the serious final stages and the real problem is fitting this in with our tight

dive schedule.

dulke eule is Well we've done the SETT a few times and was looking for another challenge, when along came the chance to see NEMO.

Small clown fish made famous by the film? Nope ............

NEMO 33

The worlds deepest pool

Sat/Sun 6th & 7th May

So what's it got?

Water: 2.500.000 lts of spring water at 30°C, visbility >33m, NO CHLORINE.
2 pools, 3 pits (5, 10 and 33m)
Caves at -10m, Three permanent bells of air under pressure (-9m, -7m, air renewed permanently).

Changing rooms, Heated showers.

Looks good doesnt it? To keep the whole thing clean THEY provide the kit. So all we need is a mask and computer.

This promises to be a great laugh and a lot of fun. Naturally, being that deep it will be neccessary that not only are you a Sport Diver, but you have also done your progression to 35m.

For ease of planning and control this trip is limited to two cars & 8 divers staying in 4x rooms.

Have some names already, but this will go quick, so setting up a reserve list. If we get another 4 then I'm happy to add a car and make it 12.

Go to the forum now and add your name if interested. Not going slow on this, want it done and dusted by next week, so please ensure you have the dosh to pay for this

now. Upfront I'll need £55 to pay for ferry, Nemo & Hotel. Then you need to give £15 each to the driver. After that its whatever you eat and drink.

500 miles = £60 fuel (£15)
Ferry = £49 (£13)
Nemo = £16 (£16)
Hotel = £45 (£23)

Brackets show actual single person price.

Total rounded up cost ( - ood & booze) = £70

Budget for 1 main meal Saturday night (breakfast is included on the Sunday AM) and
the rest snack/café type stuff + booze on the Saturday night.

I’d guess at just over £100 all in.
