Dive under Crash Boats pillars and sunken bridge wreck. Dive Buddy Jimmy. Had a bad scare underwater. Lost my regulator when bumped accidentally. Attempted regulator sweep several times with no luck. Dive buddy was not in site. I panicked and as I frantically attempted to sweep my arms for regulator I knocked my mask off my face. I released my weights and began emergency ascent.
Dive Buddy mike Badal. Visibility was poor. Current was strong. Dive conditions were overall bad but decided to go ahead with the dive. We were quickly swept by an underwater current. We attempted to find buoyancy but could not. Aborted dive after 20 min. We filled BC's and floated. Current was too strong to swim, decided to let the current take us. Ended up 500 yards or more from where we entered the water. Walked up the beach shore with all equipment. Lesson learned - You can plan a great dive but you cant predict the weather. Don't be afraid to cancel a dive if the conditions are poor or dangerous.
