Diver's Notes

No GoPro on this dive, too scared to bring it without replacing the broken pole. Saw another cool batfish hiding under part of the sunken highway. Beth picked up some shells. This was an old bay bridge that was demo'd and taken out to the ocean on a barge and sunk to create an artifical reef.

Beth realized she needed more weight, she ate through a lot of her air trying to stay on the bottom. She was at 12#, probably needed 14.
