Back with Mark on the unit for the last dive of the trip..... And made sure to maximise my scrubber time :-)
Spend vast amounts of time inside the wreck working our way through corridors, down hatches and through plenty of different little rooms. Saw a cool part of the engine room which I'd not been in before. Where the engine clearly translated the power into the prop shafts. Very cool room with a big control panel in it. There's an easy entrance to it from the starboard side underneath the keel that I'll have to remember for future.
We also looked in under the stern section where I lost mark when he started following Michelle instead!!
But generally worked our way up forward inside the wreck. Rounded the bow and came along the other side.
I had a slightly funny moment when I could taste the scrubber chalkiness plus then felt very out of breath then had a hot flush..... Very strange. Told mark to watch out for me but then it cleared as we ascended back onto the deck level.
Had a good 15 further mins investigating the warm shallow parts around the hangar and bridge. Really turning into a lovely wreck with lots and lots of life over the surface now. And even inside too.... Plenty of pink sea fans growing in the corridors even. Great to see so many of them about on this trip.
Great visibility again on the dive.... Maybe 7-8 metres as it had been for most of the trip. Really lucky to get it so good and with flat seas too. A very very good Bovi trip overall!!
