2017-09-24 - Mark's Ledge, Pompano Beach, Fl, United States
21.1m - 40 min - Dived with Scubatyme
Came down to Florida for a few days to use up last two flight credits and do a few dives. Water so warm just wore a rash guard and bathing suit. Didn't catch any lobsters but did spear some lion fish
2017-09-24 - Sunkist Reef, Pompano Beach, Fl, United States
19.9m - 45 min - Dived with Scubatyme
Second dive on the sunday morning. Again, no lobsters.
2017-09-24 - Lady Luck Shipwreck, Pompano Beach, Fl, United States
34.1m - 35 min - Dived with Scubatyme
Went back out for two more dives since Scubatyme runs two trips on Sunday's. Site was a new wreck called the lady luck which was sunk in July 2016. Saw a massive Goliath Grouper. Biggest I've ever seen. It had to be 4-5 feet long. Also, speared several lion fish on the wreck.

32.6m - 46 min - Dived with Scubatyme
Second dive on the Sunday afternoon was on the same spot, the Lady Luck shipwreck. Wreck was pretty deep so I was a bit concerned. Made a point to try and stay a little more shallow on 4th dive of the day. My computer made me do a 10 minute safety stop after back to back deep dives. One of the older guys came up and wasn't feeling well and was clearly suffering from decompression sickness. Ambulance was called and guy had to go to hospital and ended up in decompression chamber.
Second of two days of diving in September 2017. Dive was the Okinawa shipwreck which is also a very new wreck in the area. Current was crazy strong and visibility was lousy. Did not enjoy this dive at all due to conditions.
2017-09-25 - Lighthouse Ledge, Pompano Beach, Fl, United States
18.6m - 55 min - Dived with Scubatyme
Last dive of trip. I dove alone on the Abby 2 reef with a strong south current and ended up on Lighthouse Ledge. Didn't see a lobster or lion fish on entire dive. Just had to go where the current took me.
