I must admit that it isn't mine. It is the Sub-aqua clubs boat- we have 2- the 6m and you can nearly see behind it in the picture the 8m yellow one (in a bad state).

The Orange has a 115hp motor where the yellow has a 150hp. But when loaded up with 8 divers and all the required equipmet it slows it down loads.

I am now the club 'Boat member' so am responsible for keping them in good running condition.... that will include maintenance, correct equipment and regular running Wink..... once I get my licence! Iwill post pictures of the state that they are in when I have time (not a good condition!!).

Glyn, is that the recent wreck just round the coast a little bit north of Paphos?

Pete


It sure is.... hit ground when it lost power in a storm on 16th Dec 2011. The Captain is still living on it- if he leaves the cargo will become property of the Republic of Cyprus. It is actually at the edge of the 'Sea Caves'. It wouldn't supprise me if it ends up just being left there like the wreck just North of Paphos.

Bad news for the Zenobia...... Due to someone getting lost and dieing on it in 2010 there is now a Dive ban on all wrecks within 3Km of the coast- Basically the parents of the girl are blaming the Cypriot port authorities for her death and as a back-lash they are banning all diving on wrecks within their juristiction!!

Looks like you have cleaned your DC as well Shocked



I normally take mine to a placeout here which do a the inside and outside for £15. It also includes a full powerwash of the chassis and axles. I take it in every 2 weeks, and the girl who takes the reg details always smiles at me when I turn up with it completly covered in mud. I haven't cleaned it for about 3 weeks now..... must be the fact it has been raining that it looks clean Wink
