Christmas visit to the Stacked Hulls...


When you've been busy with the Pumphouse Project and the water's likely to be pretty churned up, where do you go? Well, the answer today, bearing in mind possible access issues with snowy, slippery shore conditions, was to hit the Stacked Hulls.

Despite a heavy swell, courtesy of a brisk westerly wind, and visibility somewhere around 15-20', the swim was fun. The line remains intact and we cleaned it up a bit. The yellow colour really shows up well against the bottom, when it's not slimy and dirty..

Forty minutes out to the wrecks and back, in water just above freezing makes for a great Christmas afternoon treat. Let's hope that the Club's forthcoming New Year's Day dive will enjoy such excellent topsides weather.
