Maritime Conference for Manx divers

Underwater sea life and sunken battleships will be the focus of a maritime conference in the Isle of Man this weekend for divers. Conference organisers believe that the Isle of Man has "some amazing diving sites" and want to encourage further exploration of life beneath the waves. Details of the British Battleship HMS Repulse, sunk in the South China Sea, will also be shown to delegates. The free event will start at 13:00 and takes place tomorrow, 24 February at the Manx Museum in Douglas.
