CRAVEN WATER RATS SAC

The club decided it was time to update its image with a name change, a new logo, a new venue -www.tarnhouse.co.uk - and lots of new ideas combined with tried and tested training methods to make the sport of Scuba as safe and enjoyable as possible,  also trying to incorporate a full social calendar. WYNEL was re-born into Craven Water-Rats Sub-Aqua Club in January 2000.

The club is still small but we now aim to continue with our hard earned reputation as an excellent cost effective  "training  and  diving club".  Within the first few months of reorganising the club's structure we completed a 12 week training course for 6 new divers, managed a weekend trip to Loch Fyne and planned trips for days in St.Abbs/Eyemouth, a weekend trip in September to the Fame Islands, and towards the end of the year a weekend trip to Oban...

All the above was also suplemented with the usual outings to Capernwray Quarry, Dostill , Devils Bridge, Hodge Close  and Wast Water. We are also planning club trips to the Mediterranean and the Red Sea in the future. All in all an active little club...

Safe Diving... Hev’s

Website History:
This site, first published to the web in July 2000, is still very much in its infancy. It came about because of two brothers, Tim & Dave Hasney. The first is the Diving Officer of The Craven Water Rats Sub-Aqua club and the latter, who has always had an interest in diving but only recently qualified (with an organisation other than the SAA), spends hours in front of a PC, both as part of his work and for pleasure, a bit of an 'anorak' really! Look here for more details about the SAA and the Equivalent Diver Training Qualifications page.

Since taking a course as part of an Open University Information Technology MSc degree a few years ago, Dave developed an interest in web page building. After Tim saw his brother's personal website he asked him if he would be prepared to build something for the Water Rats and this is it. After nearly forty years of only really having the fact they are brothers in common, Tim & Dave now have both Diving and Computers, it will seam strange they have something to talk about after all this time!Dave does not profess to be any sort of HTML expert however, apart from this site, Dave also maintains his own personal website, Castle Hooch and The Dolphin Scuba Team site for a PADI dive operator in Turkey!
