Back to the wreck at Murney Tower...
Responding to a request from a visitor who'd looked unsuccessfully for the guideline previously, we provided a conducted tour of the wreck today. Conditions - visibility aside - couldn't have been better. The Sun was beaming down and the water was comparatively calm. There wasn't as much fish life as recently, but bright, clear conditions don't favour the fishies. It's worth noting that the thermocline today was right on 55 feet, which makes it just above this wreck's sides and superstructure. At the bottom, the temp was down to 62℉ (17℃). The return journey was used to clean up the line a little and to bring it back to the surface in the few places where the silt threatened to hide it.
Thanks Mike and Dianne for the guided tour to the KGH wreck. I enjoyed my 30th dive with two obviously very experienced and keen divers. I made it back to Belleville for post club meeting get-together. I reported on our dive to the members present. Some of the memebers are planning to do this dive tomorrow evening if the charter booking falls through. Your generosity has helped open up this neat shore dive to a group of enthusiastic Belleville divers. Thanks again and hope to dive with you again in the future.
