Phase 1 White House Bay Wreck

Base Camp Page 4

With the base camp constructed one of the local volunteers Vandel Berry, kindly made an excellent dinner for the crew. Over the next few days the grid was constructed and the entire infrastructure was implemented. All the team went through a health & safety briefing and all the necessary signs and safety procedures were undertaken.

During the 5 weeks, we were delighted to report not one up set tummy which was a direct result of the stringent H&S policy we followed.
