Arriving Saturday. Looks like things may get drier by then. Here's hoping. Bought bug spray yesterday, too. 10% deet. Label pecifically mentions no-seeums. We'll see, especially with all this rain they may be prolific.

At what point do they call the dives? I am hoping not just for a rain storm.

Three more weeks for me...

Coco View call a dive? Rarely. In my 50+ weeks over 38 years, maybe no boat diving 3 days in my experience.

This excludes real deal

tropical storms when EVERYBODY drinks.

There are two nearby dive sites CCV can reach by motoring inshore of reef break, moor in flat water while divers slip out through a slot in the wall.

11/13 Monday
Mostly no rain and flat today, drizzle atound 1600 hrs, shore divers coming in at CCV from afternoon dive, Rostan Divers getting ready for the weekly night dive, CCV does that at 2000hrs or so..,,

Diving continues!
 
Two more weeks. Time to start packing, unpacking, packing again, putting everything on a charger, unpacking, taking inventory, and packing.

I love scuba. ❤️
 
Friday 17 November- Looks clear!

Note the most unusual weather pattern. This rain will “lift” from the Equator and move slowly NNE in a clockwise path towards Cayman and beyond.
