Amazing, it hasn't changed much since i was there 30 years ago doing my dive rescue training. Awesome video.

[@ayaanchitty]

Thanks so much 😊🙏 yes, not much has changed, just a few extra attractions over the years.

[@Brotherhood-of-The-Skallywag]

It has to be 35 years since I dived in Stoney Cove. Has so much more to explore now!

[@ayaanchitty]

Yes, there's quite a lot of attractions in there there now!

Nice vid. Of course, for accuracy, the FV432 isn't actually a 'tank', but an Armoured Personal Carrier and the one in Stoney is probably drier than the one I lived out of in Germany in the late 80s 🤣

Thanks Adrian, it sounds like you must have an interesting story behind that comment :-)

Starting my open water PADI training tomorrow at one of my local clubs. Done plenty of snorkelling but never diving. Looking forward to it - only think I am a bit unsure of is the exercise to clear a flooded mask. Looks easy enough but worried about breathing in the water up my nose or panicking LOL.

[@ayaanchitty]

That’s great, best of luck. Just take your time, the mask clears can take a little time but it will come with practice.
