[PSUBS-MAILIST] Cave Dive

[Keith Gordon via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi Alan

The two divers Richard (Harry) Harris and Craig Challen, both Australians,  have been involved with us here in NZ diving the wrecks Niagara in 120m and the Ventnor in 150m - both wrecks that we have also being using ROV's on -  also. Cousteau did use the Denise sub on the Niagara when here. We had a Triton sub dive project set up for the past weeks to dive the Niagara but on hold due to the Covid-19 situation. Both divers were involved with the Thai cave rescue - Harry was the Doc who  sedated the boys and Craig assisted with diving them out - they have recently co-written a great book on the rescue well worth a read. You wouldn't get far with a Exo in the Pearce cave system.

Cheers
Keith Gordon
