Surf's Up!!!!!...




As the picture shows, today's entry point was "interesting". The South-Westerly wind was churning up the surface, and had us experience a slight surge effect in the shallows. Burney and I swam out to the stacked hulls, hoping to encounter the same visibility as last week. Unfortunately with the weather systems we have had over the last couple of days, the viz was less than favorable. Once again, near the wreck, a long-nosed gar was lying on the bottom taking a nap. Thankfully, this time, I had my camera with me to capture this image of it. Sorry that you weren't there, Matt.... We spent about 20 minutes exploring the debris field, and turned the dive. A gently swim to shore, a 3 minute safety stop gave us a total of 60 minutes of bottom time. Maximum depth : 52 feet. Water temperature : 43 deg F (6.1 deg C).
