Diver's Notes

Dove with Steve (luscioman) from Scubaboard on this night dive. Also on the boat was Tyler Mahler. Went down to the wreck against a strong current at the surface. Saw the spirit of miami laying up against the Ophelia Brian which was pretty cool. Spotted and killed a lionfish under the spirit and then swam around for a bit. The ascent line was a bit crowded on the way up, but we were some of the first in and the second to last ones out. Pretty fun night dive.
