- RUNTIMES up to 60-70 min are STANDARD and can always be supported without any problems.
- RUNTIMES longer than 60-70 min may at best be planned during the working days.
- Longer RUNTIMES must be performed all together: this will allow the trip schedule to possibly follow one single RUNTIME at once.
- Bringing together all longer RUNTIMES will drop the overall pricing for each diver and is therefore of considerable advantage for the dive group.
- In the weekend (Sat-Sun) are many dive groups scheduled who regularly dive standard RUNTIMES of 60-70 min.
- Longer RUNTIMES in the weekend may alternatively be placed on the last boat trip of the day, after agreement with Havendiving.

- All dives may be performed only within the allowed depths, according to the diver´s certification.
- There will be at this regard no exceptions: not certified diving experience will not be taken into account

- Occasional Oxygen topping/Filling for your Stages can be easily provided.
- A Nitrox Filling Station per partial pressure has been at Havendiving foreseen and will be carried out in the next short term time.
- Helium and Oxygen for groups may be provided ONLY ON RESERVATION of the desired Stock Cylinders (40 L. x 200 bar each, that is 8 cubic m.).

- Divers groups wanting to perform many Trimix dives and who need Trimix filling have at Havendiving 2 options:

       a - BRINGING OWN STOCK BOTTLES DIRECTLY FROM HOME (some dive groups do it when they stay for some days stints).
       b - BOOKING STOCK BOTTLES IN ADVANCE AT HAVENDIVING ON EXACT QUANTITY CALCULATION (at least 2 weeks before arrival).
             For more than 3 pcs. HAVENDIVING requires as a booking confirmation a little payment in advance by international money transfer.

5 ) MAX RUNTIME: 60-70 min.

REGULATIONS FOR THE HAVEN WRECK PENETRATION

- Dives with PENETRATION of the HAVEN' s inner rooms are basically possible to any divers, having IN THE GROUP THEIR OWN DIVE GUIDES.
- This requires good knowledge, experience and organization of the diver's group, since the deepest rooms (54-75 m) cannot be taken for granted.

Command Deck (36 m) - Engines Control Deck (39 m) - Officers Deck (42 m): these penetration dives are supported by HAVENDIVING dive guides.
