So the rabbit in wonderland has nothing on us for lateness it seems! (the new movie is was pretty cool btw!)
On Sunday the club got togther for its official start of the summer dive season. (for those of you who dont wear dry suits that is). It was a picture perfect day. Mostly sunny with a splash or 2 of clouds. We had our best attendance every with over 50 people in attendance and almost as many divers. I think it was 47 who braved the water.
Details of the dive vary, some folks opted to just swim around in the shallows looking for the magic numbered golf balls while others like myself opted for the deep dive to the ledges at 80-109 feet. Vis near the surface down to 20 feet was poor but under 35 feet it opened up to 30 feet. Not alot of life down there today I think we scared them off. Water temps in the first thermoclines were 54ish while below that were 48F.
We had a great spread of food by Kim and a few extra fresh baked goodies from members (Sheila!) and even more fun were the fantastic spread of prizes given out by our local vendors such as: Northern Tech Divers, Dive Tech, and Rockport Divers. Big thanks from all our members to you guys. If we didnt have you guys around it would be very hard to dive around here! As a club we are very fortunate to have such a wide variety of freindly shops to choose from.
A couple of pics, nothing underwater this time I was playing with a stage bottle again. Someone thinks they are going to "trick me" into tech diving =P
As allways yours in Fun Safe Diving
