Subject: Diving the Britanic - Expedition
Hi there,

First of all, let me introduce myself. My name is Nick, I'm a TDI Instructor
Trainer and the managing director of TDI Greece.

Reading the messages posted in this list, I've noticed an interest in the
possibility of diving the Britanic. Given this opportunity, I would like to
inform anyone interested that TDI Greece will organize an expedition to the
Britanic in November 1997. The reason for this quite far date is that there
are numerous problems that must be solved, like getting the permission from
the Greek Goverment, finding sponsors and funds and finally finding the
wreck itself.

The fact is that there are three different possible locations where the
Britanic rests. It is arguable if the Britanic has been dived since Cousteau
did, because the few techdivers that say they did have taken no pictures of it.

Anyway, to get back to our expedition, we will have in our team the greek
diver who joined Cousteau's team back in 1974. We will also hope to have Rob
Palmer with us (Rob, remember our conversation at the airport?) and perhaps
a few CC rebreather units.

Our primary goal is to film the wreck and enter its interior which is
something that noone has ever done. Cousteau's team just entered the bridge
of the ship.

This message posted to Techdiver, is an invitation for expression of
interest. If you want, and think you can join our team, just send me an
e-mail. I will then be glad to send you more information.



Thank you very much,
Nick M. Tsikas
TDI Instructor Trainer
