Wow! Great trip to Santa Barbara and Farnsworth and Catalina. Great Escape is fantastic - wonderful crew (thank you Capt Tim), great fun, excellent diving, gorgeous weather.... can't say enough about it.

I am busy working on videos and photos this week and hope to get a few things posted soon.

He he...oh that does look soooo nice! How were the temps???

We were at Santa Barbara and Catalina - and my computer registered 66-68 degrees on all dives except one. The only one that got colder was at Farnsworth, at +90' deep there was a thermocline and my computer dipped to mid-50s. But you weren't down there long as it is soooo deep so we didn't get cold. I can see why Farnsworth Bank is considered such an awesome dive.... EVERYONE should do that dive if they can get there. Words don't even do it justice. It was the most colorful dive site I have ever visited, bar none.
I didn't take the video rig down for Farnsworth unfortunately. As it is so deep and dark I figured it wouldn't be any good for video without lights. My hubby did get some still photos though. I will post when we get everything edited.
All I can saw is WOW......
