Trust me.

I'll check in on the developments when I get back from the next debacle in Norway- 885' and a projected 11 days. The insurance quote is $135,000.00 US. Do the math.

Ta.

Hey Sven! how's you? Must admit I dont aspire to those depths but would love to go just a tad deeper to see some of our wrecks at 70metres. not without the training and experience of course. What's the Norway 885? Sounds like the abyss to me.
