EDS take an early dip in Bristol Harbour

Yesterday just as the sun was coming up a group of EDS divers were busy responding to a clients call. A bronze artifact needed removing from a working harbour before it caused further issues.

Our diver attached strops to the bronze object so it could be lifted from the water onto a pontoon and taken away by the client.  Despite the early hour, a small crowd of spectators and journalists gathered to watch these events, reporting on them in the national news.
