I'm in Australia right now but am Irish and will be heading home in November. I usually dive at various locations on the west coast - Clare, Connemara, Sligo. Haven't done any in Kerry yet!
I remember the last dives I did at Kilkee in Co. Clare, it was kind of rough and the rib just flew around everywhere picking up divers - in hindsight I think the reel might be a good idea because
- with the rib so mobile I think there's more chance of being run over than with charter dive boats in tropical places that are moored
- rough seas make diver bubbles harder to spot
- sometimes it's dull and rainy and very hard to spot divers on the surface
>>and it very rarely gets tangled jut remeber ot them the spool as the smb s going up so you can stop an over run.<<
sorry I don't quite get what you mean.
What about folding it all up again, does it get in the way when you're trying to heave yourself back onto the rib?
