2024-11-01 - Molokini Crater, Hawaii Maui, United States
19.2m - 47 min - Dived with Burch from Prodiver Maui Or Ultra Dive
Jill 123 I used 12lbs and was fine. Jill used 12lbs and was too light. Good first dive since February. Best thing was seeing 6 gray tip reef sharks out hunting together. Also saw a white tip sleeping under an overhang. Saw one moray eel and one white spotted eel. Burch was our dive guide and he was great. ProDiver was excellent. German couple who worked at Mercedes in Stuttgart were on boat and a guy from Alaska by himself who used a private dive guide.

19.2m - 49 min - Dived with Jess from Prodiver Maui Or Ultra Dive
Jill 125 Jill used 14 (and was too heavy), I used 12lbs and was fine. 1st dive of PADI Advanced. Worked on peak buoyancy skills with Jess. We both did well. Had time at end to look around and see some things. Jess showed us Skeeter a wrasse who likes it if you turn over rocks for him to eat algae on the underside and Jill found an eel.

19.5m - 47 min - Dived with Jess from Prodiver Maui Or Ultra Dive
Jill 126. Both used 12lbs and were fine. Jess suggested that maybe I could reduce my weight. Leaving it the same for now. This was our drift dive for our advanced certificate. Pretty relaxing dive from Reef's End. Highlight was definitely seeing dolphins underwater. Also saw quite a few sharks and some puffers.

2024-11-07 - Five Graves, Hawaii Maui, United States
13.7m - 43 min - Dived with Jess from Prodiver Maui Or Ultra Dive
Jill 128. Both used 12lbs and were fine. We did our navigation skill review for the advanced cert. We did ok. Saw an Octopus hiding under a rock shelf and a frog fish out and about. For some reason my dive computer logged this as a single dive because we surfaced and then only spent a few minutes on the boat before jumping in for our final dive for our advanced card.

13.7m - 33 min - Dived with Jess from Prodiver Maui Or Ultra Dive
Jill 129. Both used 12lbs and were fine. Final dive for advanced card certification. Quick surface interval and then did the "Underwater Naturalist" portion where we were counting stuff. It was kind of a joke, but still a good dive. Saw the same octopus again. Jess was great for our certification and we had a good time with ProDiver. Too bad they don't do nitrox anymore, so we likely won't go with them anymore. We'll see.
