Laurie Irvine is a fully qualified and experienced commercial diver (South African DoL Class II - surface supply to 50m). He has an in date dive medical and all gear is professionally maintained and serviced. Every job is accompanied by a before/after video which can be uploaded to Youtube for the owner to peruse at their leisure.
In the wake of the problems experienced during last Thursday's "Buster", Laurie is offering a mooring inspection special for R180. This includes a visual inspection of rope and chain, link-by-link from the boat to each anchor. Any weak links or shackles will be measured by calliper, all worn rope will be noted and the owner will be given a video to show the exact wear and tear. If required he can then carry out additional work to strengthen the mooring.
For more about how Laurie developed a fascination for the sea, read the excellent book titled "Faraway" by Author Lucy Irvine ( his Mum ). This can be found in the non fiction section ( try the 9.10 - 9.14 range )of most libraries. If you cant find one try Richard Crocket's Sailing Books ( www.sailingbooks.co.za ) or Amazon.
There is an interesting story behind the name of his company too - i will let Laurie do the telling.
