Lilli – a shallower dive, must have been before getting a flight…

Please give our thanks to all the team as again they helped to give us a great time with you.

I have attached a copy of the group photo and one of our club logo.

Gill and myself look forward to planning the next trip.

Thanks again

Pete

Dear all,

From our side, many thanks, to have so nice holidays at Gozo.
We wish you best health, kind divers, every day sunshinning, and all your wishes are going fulfilment.

Best regards

It took over a year to custom build to our specifications but it was finally launched in May 2008. The hull is a Malta made ‘Chaudron 28′.  All the interior was then constructed entirely in GRP (fibreglass) by Muscat boat builders in Gozo. Divemania was constructed according to very stringint MMA (Malta Maritime Authority) specifications and the work was constantly supervised by surveyor Mr. Paul Cardona. It was built as a fast functional dive boat but also as a boat that can be chartered for cruises by groups and families. Throughout 2008 Divemania was often used also for pleasure trips between the Valletta Grand Harbour and Gozo and also for full day, half day or sun set trips around Comino.
