The beginning of the dive was fine. The current was strong but we were moving with it.. When we explored the wrecks I was trying to move to fast in the current. I slowed down. 3/4 of the way through the dive, we had to swim back against the current, I went from 1600 psi to 600 getting back to the boat. My mask was leaking and I had difficulty maintaining altitude and positioning for the safety stop due to the strong current. Jon remarked that this was probably the second strongest current encountered at the site. There was some weather moving in.
The wrecks were great though and everyone had a nice time.
