Well I'm afraid that the weather defeated us on Friday so we didn't get out on Sanaf - not really a surprise as it was blowing up a storm. However on the Good News front we now have four more people licensed to take Sanaf out as well as the owners:
Angela M
Petra W
Danny C
Martin T
Thanks very much to Stuart and Haris in obtaining the necessary paperwork... now we just need someone able (and willing) to tow her to the harbour :-)
Any DMs wanting to run dives on Sanaf this week (12th/13th) or next week (19th/20th) please let me know.
This weekend is the three day dhow in the Musandam and I believe there's one space still available - contact Lisa for details but do it quickly as today is the last chance to join.
Steve Harris has offered the following dives over the coming months - please let him know if you're interested:
Please take note of the following Musandam trips, I will need to get sufficient numbers to be able to book the boat.
ONE DAY DHOW or FAST BOAT - JUNE 26th
ONE DAY DHOW or FAST BOAT - JULY 3rd
Please indicate what you prefer on what date, then I can book the boat accordingly, if we have enough people, we need:
8 People for Fast Boat
16-20 People for Dhow Trip
The committee has decided to increase the cost, this will enable us to run the boats with fewer people, the new prices are as follows:
FRIDAY DHOW
AED 250 Club Member Diving
AED 350 Guest Diving
AED 150 Student/Guest Non Diving
FAST BOAT
AED 300
The weekly meeting this week at the World Trade Centre Apartments from about 7:30 - dives posted from 8pm - hopefully we'll see you there.
Finally Angela has asked me to circulate the following information from the Natural History Group in Dubai:
Could you forward the attached message to DSDC members. The DNHG lecture is next Sunday. It is free to attend. Location - Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management - maps attached.
NHG June Lecture on "South Africa's Great White Sharks"
The Dubai Natural History Group will hold its June meeting at the Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management (opposite Wild Wadi) on Sunday 7th June 2015 at 7.15 p.m. for 7.30 p.m. Our speaker, Dott. Alessandro De Meddalena will present an illustrated talk entitled "South Africa’s Great White Sharks”. Please see attached flier for more information.
Visitors and new members are welcome. The contact number for the meeting is 394-8871
Please note start time of lecture which will be held in the Auditorium of the Emirates Academy of Hospitality Management and not in our usual Lecture Theatre.
To reach the Auditorium, with the building facing you, enter through the door to the right of the main entrance. There will be a notice on the door saying DNHG meeting.
Sounds like a very interesting talk as is usual from the group.
Cheers, Chris
