Diver's Notes

Sea a bit choppy and the vis was more reduced since the earlier dive.

Nice dive but i was a bit conscious of the air travelling down to my boots in the dry suit. Currently have strapped 1/2 kilo of weight to each boot, I might need to up that.

Tired after second dive but it was well worth it.
