Another weekend and we're hoping for something better than the murk the week before. This week we go west in search of some visibility. The target is the bow of the Black Hawk in the rather scenic Worbarrow Bay, Dorset.

We put the club RIB into the water at Kimmeridge just a few miles to the east. It was quite interesting to watch the various degrees of seamanship on show at the slip; some of the more interesting examples were "we've never launched a boat before, you go first and we'll watch how it's done" (I'll bet that those guys are still in Weymouth with their vodka running dangerously low!) to the explosive launch technique which I can explain on demand but will probably decline a demonstration.

If you read last week's report, you'll know that our echo sounder/fish finder is a tad unreliable at present so we were once more relying on our patent pending Pooley Nav. How did it go this time?

Well, this is going to be particularly short. The day was lovely, blue skies, calm seas, warm weather, everything going well. Off we went to Freshwater Bay just around the corner from the Needles on the Isle of Wight. Just before the bay is the wreck of the War Knight.

Despite the echo sounder / fish wreck finder being on the blink, Dr. Pooley decided he can find the wreck from memorised transits. He makes 2 passes then orders the shot to be chucked over the side.

Myself and Adrian kit up and jump over the side. Off we go down the shot and guess what?? It's on the boilers!! The ol' Pooley nav is spot on! The bad news......
