FINALLY, a key largo dive report, FRIDAY, 5/23/14, pics,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[reefman]

after 3 weeks of persistent blustery winds and rough seas, conditions today, were simply, outstanding! bright sunshine, calm winds and flat seas greeted us @ molasses reef this AM. a stripped high pressure tank valve and user error(myself not checking tank pressure @ the dock) limited our day to a one tank dive. not happy! buoy M29: vibrant blue water, viz 80+(approaching 100FT on the ride in) , mdt current, water temp 79F @ 50-74 FT. molasses was jam packed with commercial dive boats, all @ capacity with eager divers! 3 tanker tomorrow, possibly north to avoid the crowds(elbow/carysfort). marine forecast looks good thru sunday. pics from TIMG,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Nice shots as usual!

Yep I was down about 3 weeks ago and caught great conditions for the 1st 3 days before the wind started to blow. Looks like it just kept going since then.

I love your enthusiasm

I also had enthusiasm this morning until after having loaded the boat for a trip north(3 tanks), my starboard engine wouldn't start. appears the starter is shot(try getting that replaced over this holiday weekend!). yesterday gear malfunctions, today engine issues, it never ends,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
