Completing her Advanced Open Water Certification this afternoon with the mandatory Deep Dive, Dianne joins the ranks of the Club's more experienced divers. The dive, which took the Cora Post wreck on Howe Island as its start point, was a classic deep dive. The sloping bottom is a perfect reference for a diver ascending and descending from the 100 foot mark. The most striking aspect of the dive was the extraordinary play of light as the Sun came in and out. It was almost as if a switch was being thrown.
Otherwise, the dive was relatively undistinguished, with no particular challenges encountered. Water temperature was 39F (4C) and the air temperature 17C (63F). Visibility was really very good indeed - at about 40 feet. Time in the water, including a prolonged safety stop of 5 minutes - 58 minutes.

Congradulations Dianne. Not only are you now an advanced qualified diver but clearly you are one of the most active divers of the club.
Well deserved.
