Dove Bluewater Saturday. We had a good time. Not much to report, we just worked on weighting and trim and such. Did get a chance to go down to the sailboat. It was a little chilly down there and vis wasnt very good. Dropped about 10 lbs off my weight. I was really heavy during OW I guess. Down to 8 lbs now and hope to shed a few more in the near future. Looking forward to more dives to come and improving on my skills.
Good job! Not sure about in freshwater yet, but I went to the Gulf a few weekends ago and I ended up dropping about 4 more lbs, compared to when I get my OW dives at Blue Water. I'm not perfect with it yet, but I'm interested in seeing what I am like at Blue Water now.
What was the tempature by the sell boat? I'll be getting a long suit soon, maybe a 3/4. Not sure yet.
I dove a 3mm and was a little chilled. Temp at sail boat was probably around 65-70 I would guess. Would have been comfortably with gloves and hood I'm sure. Vis was really poor down there and couldn't see much.
Too much work, and no vacation, Deserves at least a small libation.So hail! my friends, and raise your glasses; Work's the curse of the drinking classes.
