Diver's Notes

Dived Gull Rock. John lost his torch while putting on his fins...I laghed as it floated off and he chased it. then my glooves floated away... Carma!! We snorkled out to gull rock and descended to 7m we went round the rock clockwise and found the cave. some one wrote john and steve on a box. We went in the cave nothing much in their. I saw wolffish possibly as we came out. We did rest of gull rock and then swam across to the other large rock where we went thru the gully and saw 2m conger Eel .We did quite a bit of kelp fighting. We came to a sandy part and had to return due to low air. thought i was going to reach 1 hour but not quite 57mins. Came out and went home left about 2.30pm got home at 4.15pm (farm vehicles)!! Fixed mini till 9.30 in bed now. Wrecked!! long day but enjoied it.
