Diver's Notes

The only worthy wreck on the Big Island. It was an old landing craft utility (LCU) that was used for fishing after the war and then sunk for a reef. It was a decent dive. I cleaned up the wreck by picking up a grill brush, glass jar, and tip protector for a spear gun. Then a submarine showed up full of people and I got some video. It was awesome. In the process I lost my camera and it rocketed to the surface. After an extended safety stop we got on the boat and went looking for it. While trolling through the water we saw a pod of dolphins. Right as we were about to give up it was spotted! Poseidon failed again!
