Hello Suzanne,

Thanks for the update and itinerary for the weekend 28th / 29th for the wreck diving course.

Thanks also for booking a room at Truck Haven, I was going to give them a call today to book a room but you have obviously done this before, very organised I must admit.

I look forward to meeting your instructors tomorrow and the weekend a Capernwray.

I have been looking for a new dive centre since Tigerdive closed last year and up to now, impressions so far of ROHO are very good and I'm sure I will be able to recommend your dive school to other ex Tigerdivers who are also looking for somewhere friendly to continue their diving adventures.

Many thanks,
Lee Wiggett.

I have worked in and around the dive industry for the past 20 years, working with BSAC, PADI and the SAA. When instructing it's important to have a suit that's dry and comfortable and stays dry when abused on a daily basis. Unfortunately many drysuits just aren't up to the abuse that a commercial instructor can give them.

RoHo say "Why take a waterproof material and put holes in it?".

After years of using other suits I can only agree from personal experience. Every membrane suit I have used ends out leaking on the seams. Why? Because all that is keeping it waterproof is a piece of tape on the inside. With movement this degrades over time and the suit leaks.

But surely stitching a suit makes it stronger?

Well no in my experience that's not why a suit fails. 15 years ago I bought a very expensive DUI suit but recommended my students buy RoHo as they were 'cheap and cheerful'. My DUI suit now leaks al over and is known as Dry Until Immersed whereas one of my students, who I am still in touch with, has a dry RoHo suit. I guess years ago I didn't believe that a suit held together only with glue could be any good. Daft really as my boat is held together only with glue...

So a year ago I bought myself a RoHo glued tri-laminate drysuit. It's It's a lot lighter and far more comfortable than my DUI suit plus it's tough and survives deep wrecks. It's also still dry!

So why do other manufacturers not make suits like RoHo?

Its easier to stitch and tape a suit on the inside - and by making a feature of the seams you can make it look nice! Just don't expect it to stay dry for long!

I phoned this morning for advice on dive dry suits, I dealt with Carl who was brilliant. He was polite, knowledgeble, very helpfull and a pleasure to deal with. This resulted in me purchasing a suit.

I am the chairman of a dive club with a large network of friends and divers not only in my club but also many others. As a result of my experience this morning I will happily promote your company to others who hopefully will deal with you in the future.

Can this email be brought to the attention of Carl and his supervisors if that is deemed appropriate please. I am well aware that we are a country full of whingers who only tend to get vocal when things go wrong, sometimes though it is nice to receive thanks when you do your job well etc.

Many thanks
