Diver's Notes

Overcast and showers with a fair swell. Plenty of Lobster about gorging themselves on jellyfish. Few crab about hiding under rocks.

Very nice dive although Mick got cold near the end of the dive. Thought he may have had a leak but when we checked back on shore he was dry.

Note to self: My tank is due a service.
