Message from Kel After coming back from a great trip to Hideaway and having Julie’s birthday (we won’t say how old she was) there, we can only say that we are going to have some fun on our trips this year. Keep your eye out at the shop for our trips including Brunei, Truk and many more to come. Please don’t forget the first club night for 2014. It is on Monday the 3rd of February starting at the Penshurst Hotel at 7.30pm, but most people make it a cheap night and grab meal beforehand. For around $15 you can grab a chicken schnitzel and a beer.

THE DECO DIARY
New Products The ATKA Ultra Dry Towel This month we love these new products from some of our favorite suppliers! Have you tried one? Send us your review!
$49.00 Well divers, we all know the problem with our packing allowances when we are going overseas, some places are 23 kg some are up to 30kg. But the most common problem is the size of the bags and this little gem may just help with a bit of that problem. I received one of the micro towels about 3 years ago and it was great, so good that Caitlin decided that she needed it more than I did. So when we were able to get them in store at a good price I jumped on it. Here is there little blurb!
Mini Review: Sea Gold
Lightweight and compact Atka Ultra Fast-Dry towels are perfect for travelers, outdoor enthusiasts and athletes where maximum performance, minimal footprint, and extended use are critical. Technical polyester fabric wicks and disperses moisture quickly, facilitating superfast evaporation – you’ll barely notice any residual moisture in the towel within a few minutes after using. And towels stay fresher longer from Polygiene® antimicrobial treatment. Size:Large(86x147)cm Weight:300g

When you’re scuba diving or snorkeling, there’s nothing more annoying than a fogged-up dive mask. So why mess around with just any anti-fog treatment? De-fog with Sea Gold Avid scuba divers, instructors and professional gear testers alike agree: Sea Gold is the best anti-fog treatment out there. Use Sea Gold and you’ll enjoy diving as it was meant to be: completely fog-free.
THE DECO DIARY
Recent Course Updates The who’s who of training, let’s start with training at the end of last year. Just before Xmas, Tracie completed her open water with Ken, then topped it off with a deep course with Kel in Vanuatu. Peter had another 6 students completing their Advanced, Deep, Wreck and Night course. So we have courses going on all the time. Dom has been going hard with a heap of classes as well. Keep an eye out as we will be starting this year’s TDI Tech courses next month.
