Sunshine and Snow...



This morning's bright and calm conditions presented a great opportunity to test out the bearings taken the other day on the dinghy wreck by the Kingston Yacht Club. They proved to be spot on, with a gentle swim from the end of the West St Ramp, on a magnetic bearing of 205 degrees, taking just 6 minutes to reach the target. Moving on to the car wreck allowed us to see the same large shoal of Bass as earlier this week - and a large Northern Pike swimming gently in their midst. Some posing with the golf clubs protruding from the car's trunk was enjoyed before heading back to the Ramp to conclude the dive in just under the half hour. Water temperature 34F (2C) and the air temperature a balmy -2C (28F).
