A long-planned expedition to Alexandria Bay and the wreck of the Islander unfolded successfully today. Five of us, Dianne, Nancy, Theresa, Chris and I made our way over the bridges and enjoyed about 50 minutes in the 60 feet or so of water that surrounds the wreck. Visibility was moderately disappointing at about 25 feet, with a lot of drifting particulates. But the water temperature was peachy - 56F (13C) at 60 feet.
There was an interesting opportunity to watch a Tech 1 course working on the wreck - stage bottles, lines and reels very much in evidence.
