hi I am off to Grenada for New Year 2007, has anyone been rebreather diving here?
the Bianca C looks real good

I took an Inspiration to Grenada in 2001. It was great. The engine room of the Bianca is awesome, but is a single entrance/exit.

Mad Dog provided all of the logistics.

I have always wanted to dive this wreck but haven't heard much about it after all the hurricanes last year (and that one that practically levelled Grenada) - how is the dive? Should I reinvigorate my plans to go there in the near future?

I have not had good experiences there. For instance the last time I was there, I got shot by a guy with an AK-47. (1983)

It wasn't really a vacation. It was a "business" trip...

There is only one dive centre on the island offering rebreather diving (dolphin and inspiration) it is scubatech in the calabash hotel. Small but very professional and helpful.
I hope I could help you with that.

Not anymore...you can get to the lower engine room from one entrance, The upper engine room from another entrance. I ran a line connecting the two access points in April.

Andrew Driver & Mad Dog coordinated the trip. We dove out of the shop at the Flamboyant Hotel. He for the Rebreather divers, air for the OC divers plus deco gas.
