    We were headed in from our 2nd dive just after dark and saw the Coastguard boat headed north fast with lights on.
    Always gives me an unsettled feeling to see that. The wind picked up and the conditions got choppy as we entered for our dive. My dad was topside and admitted to having a hard time seeing our buoy. Dive buoys become very hard to see in white cap conditions in the daylight, even worse at sunset.
    Glad to hear he was found safe.

    We should report that the bugs are missing and the authorities could find them for us.
