Bums on seats

Hi All

When I started diving it was reasonably easy to book individual spaces on dive boats to dive on a weekend, now it looks like this is confined to weekdays only. Does anyone know of any dive boats who are still willing to book on a bums on seats basis on weekends? I'd love to have a better diving season in 2009 than we did in 2008!

Thank you.

      


Rocket 2009 season

Dates for 2009 now being taken.With day and evening charters from Poole for as little as £20 .Also on offer, three day charters to Channel Islands and France.Try Rocket and sample diving at its best.
