I really don't think I've ever thought about sharks at Gerstle Cove. Longshore currents, for sure; navigation to get back in the cove, for sure. At Ft Ross I do sometimes think about what's out there, but for some reason not at Gerstle.
While it was a part of the briefing I didn't hear the "music" in my head the entire dive. There was an awareness that we were not going to surface way out there. Other than that I was concentrating on navigation and keeping Don by my side...
Next time it'll be singles and the scooters... I want to see if it clears up in the deeper parts. Does anyone have the bathy maps for Ft Ross and Salt pt?
Good or bad...I don't think too much about The Landlord when I'm diving here. That would just ruin the experience. I'm careful to not stay on the surface for too long but there's not much I can do if I run into one, so why worry about it ahead of time. Hey, I get in a car every day. If it's my time, it's my time.
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

Interesting that you said keeping me on your side. In Monterey, you seem to have no issues with single file or staggered. I wasn't "protection" for your right side was I?
