A treasure hunt would be so much fun. I wonder if any clubs do one down here... will have to ask around!
For this month, I have planned Foggy Reef for Saturday and also a shore dive. We want to do a bit more diverse shore diving so want to check out Flinders Pier, Mornington Pier + Rickett's Point Marine park and I have heard that some charters are doing night dives to Portsea Hole so REALLY want to do a boat dive at night! For boat dives we are going to aim for the Coogee wreck and I want to do Portsea Hole again (in the daytime before the night dive) as I did it for my first OW boat dive in February and never since - was scared the whole time then so I don't remember it at all!
But really hanging out for October as I will have Rescue, and then hopefully another trip to Sydney! Gotta figure out dates soon for my plane ticket~

ive seen people go ferral for potaotes at the treasure hunt. you come out with a pototo and get a raffle ticket for the prizes
last year someone tried to take a divers potato off him (yes a he not me!) and the guy retailated by ripping the thief's mask off and throwing it to the sand
a sydney dive idea - the Currajong. its a interesting dive/wreck becuase it has to be done at midnight as its in the middle of a shipping lane, Michael McFadyen's Scuba Diving Web Site. scubaroos dives its regularly

One of the JB Rockers has done it a couple times with Sydney Dive Academy. They asked me but I just couldn't face the hour... meet at midnight gear up boat out etc. Denis liked it so much he did it twice and I think would do it again but Denis is about as keen as Sas. Maybe when I am not working full time I will give it a go...Sas our group's average dive time at Bare Island is 80 to 90 minutes. Lots to see but not terribly deep so you get a decent bottom time. We do it often enough we know where the interesting critters live:blinking: heck we are on first name basis with some of them.
The ones that are currently using white canes from the camera flashes are ironicly easerier to get shots of... don't see us comming anymore

I would go feral for potatoes, they are one of my favourite foods! Perhaps they might not be edible after spending some time on the bottom of the sea though...Wow the Currajong sounds cool! It is 24-26m ish I saw on a site so in my diving range
Don't mind about the time either I could dive Fri night after my flight and then again on Saturday at Bare Island! We usually aim for 60-70mins on our shore dives, but if I had a 12L tank I could manage 80-90 easy Gotta see if my buddy can come up to Sydney as well. Probably 24-26th of Oct or 31st-1st Nov are the likely dates for my trip. But will know for sure on the weekend.almitywife
