GOAL: Recover the lost weight pocket - Fail. Not found.
TEST: Dive without hood or gloves because of previous excess heat - Fail (lasted 2 min in thermocline b4 aborting dive. WAY too cold + headache)
ISSUES: Lost control of buoyancy and popped up despite attempts at emptying air and kicking downwards. Felt very tired and dizzy after dive.
Flag cord tangled only when surfacing.
Very dark at bottom (almost like night diving) and coming down the rockface into darkness reminded me of the Abyss.
Dove with flag and spool - we were constantly tangled!
Some difficulties with buoyancy at 20 ft.
Christiane lost an integrated weight pocket and did not notice until after.
Overheated at beach entrance (25°C Air temp + sun)
Spit in mask and no fog.
