Diver's Notes

First dive of two-tank boat dive with group from New York. Was told to hang at the back of the group, and "Scuba Steve" was hunting lionfish all the time and not moving much, so neither did I. Saw a big green moray eel out and about, though, and a turtle - others saw a shark, but I didn't. Returned a little earlier to help people back into the boat. Premiere of my new tank banger, and my freshly serviced reg!
