Don't let the name fool you, it has little to do with any research

There is also the UQ Dive club (mostly new divers and younger people), BSAC and LionFish. From what I heard BSAC are pretty experienced divers and do a lot of Tech dives and for LionFish i'd need a few hundred more dives before I could even approach them

I only joined when I got my gear, about 5-6 months ago. There was meant to be a dive for the HMAS Brisbane this weekend, but called off due to bad weather :/
Sister has been a member for just over a year or something.

Over 5000 dives is nuts Double Diff... I stopped logging after 29 and I have only done about 60-70 dives total so I'm still a bit of a muppet :/

To be honest I can't remember, I didn't do any wrecks while I was there. I was in Vanuatu for 4 days and those 4 days was for the Open Water Dive course Maybe we should organise a Jeep Dive since there isn't a shortage of experience Hmmmm, we need a boat.....

I got the boat and I can fill tanks but there is no floor in it at the moment. I pulled out the ply floor to put an ally one in and got side tracked playing with my XJ. Go figure.

Yeh, it tends to happen that way. The thing you use everyday usually gets modified first Hmmm, cheap dive trips??? Everyone chip in with all the stuff to make it happen?
