Larry C:More info and a video circling the "island" can be found on the BAUE website (Bay Area Underwater Explorers). These guys are techies who have done some great stuff, mapping sites in the Monterey area and discovered a previously unknown sunken barge in about 200 ft. off Monterey. Here's a link.

If you are talking about the Albion (the barge at 200ft) a few tech divers who are not members of BAUE recently started diving it regularly, and I don't think BAUE members were involved in finding the current location.
BTW, did Carol get a chance to try the long hose yet?
