[Orpheus]

The promotion for the wreck is for SRC members. If you do Adv Course, it ranges from anything around 380, dependent on location.

[hoppinghippos]

Orpheus: The wreck dive's free adventure dives, do they come with training? Or just go and do it?

[yazid]

Orpheus,

Where is Bwerhala Wreck? Is that in Thailand or Malaysia?

I'm keen... What's the total number of dive?

Adventure dives are training dives. During Adventure dives, you will be taught the same thing as you are taking your PADI Advanced Open Water course. The only difference is that instead of doing 5 Adventures dives on one trip, you are breaking them up.

In this way, you will not feel the pressure of "on course". It would be more of leisure diving, plus one or two trianing dives.

Yazid;

Bwerhela wreck is situated about four hours away from Tioman. We will be doing two to three dives on the wreck, dependent on the condition.

This wreck should be interesting for most. It is actually a WWII Japanese frigate, and it is quite intact. The guns are still mounted there.

The total number of dives is actually unlimited for this trip. But usually, based on past experience, we can usually to about 5 - 7 dives a weekend. Too much dives, it will be tiring not only for you, but for me too

wooowwwww!

cool sia..

Orpheus:

k so if we go fer the wreck, we'll be doing 1/5 of our advanced? we gonna need 4 more adventure rite? correct me if i'm wrong... realli blur leh..

on advance course, 2 compulsory dives are deep and navigation. Thus, if u do wreck + these two dives, u are left with probably nite and drift or PPB (peak performance buoyancy or multi-level diving... hope that helps to clarify your question.

wah.. WWII ship wreck.. me keen leh.. is it LOB aka live on board?

[Orpheus]

LOB is Liveonboard.

And yes, if you do a wreck adventure dive, you are effectively left with 4 more adventure dives before getting your Advanced Certification.

But on this Bwerhela Wreck, I can even conduct one more Adventure dive for you (FOC) if you are interested.

[yazid]

I'm going to sign up for Bwerhala Wreck. Anyone else going?

Since it will be a max of 7 dives (2xAdventure dive and 5xleisure dive).

[yazid]

Bob, r u going?

[Sinn]

so its set on the 5th eh ?

hmm....

[nleong]

enjoy the dive guys. I can't go

btw, when you guys wanna take the Advance ? Lets start planning for it.

[DaY]

i can't make it on 5th..i also want to go for advance dive..

Any other late date?

before the moonson season?

[marvellous07]

yazid,

i don't know reali... i wanna go but.. firstly, dunno if i can get the $$ in the first place... n i think i wanna do all the advance at once (i think it's better tat way)..

but .. i wanna go. hehehe so fickle minded.. how bt u?

[yazid]

I don't like the idea to get AO in one weekend. I don't get to see much as I'm "under supervision".

I'll take the alternative route (Adventure Diver) and enjoy my leisure dive.

[nleong]

Yazid,

That provided you can FOC adventure dive all the time. If so, I won't mind either.

[yazid]

Norman,

FOC for Adventure dive . I think Orpheus got the idea. . I think Adventure dive can be package together as leisure dive except for the core dive

that need a little bit of theory.

[nleong]

Hm... so that comes back to square one isn't it ? After all the adventure dive, you still need to go for a theory lesson. How does the sum works out ?

I'm confused already.

AOW is very much similar to leisure already.. except that u do deep dives and other form of dives. trust me.. u wun feel like u are under supervision or that sort. probably only during the navigation and deep dives that u will feel "supervised".. otherwise, it is like leisure.. but do take note of the briefing prior to the dive. U will then know what u are going to experience. Briefing is impt and do take note.

actually, it is good to read up on the type of dives first prior to the actual thing.. u will learn more then just diving then learn the theory of it.. to me, that is useless already.. u would have to go thru another time to know what it means.
