Diver's Notes

Underweight. Buddied w/ Steve Appleby & Rich. V murky on the wreck & a foggy mask! Quite a bit of life though incl. crabs, pollack, bib, gobys/blenny. Came up at 100bar despite planning to do a couple of mins deco. Good job though as I couldn't stay down at 6m; underweight. No safety stop but a slow ascent anyway.
