I had a great time diving! Over the week I was able to get 4 dives in, and they were all great.
1) Zebulon Pike, 93ft, 28min, 55* at depth, 78* on surface. Vis was 25' at depth.
2) Zebulon Pike, 94ft, 30min, 55* at depth, 79* on surface. Vis was 25' at depth.
3) Jake's Point Wreck, 63ft, 21min, 58* at depth, 81* on surface. Vis was 25' at depth.
4) Zebulon Pike, 89ft, 39min, 54* at depth, 83* on surface. Vis was 25' at depth.
The last dive on the Zeb had more things go wrong than I've ever had on a single dive. I did the dive at night, so that added a few coplexities, but sheesh! They were:
1) Video cam snagged the permanent line a few times on the way down (no biggie, just lifted it off the line)
2) Zip tie holding bolt snap to light broke as I was trying to stow it.
3) SMB exploded at end of dive, adding a few minutes to reel it back in and to follow the permanent line back (it's a long swim, about 6 minutes)
4) Computer went into unplanned Deco due to time spent fixing SMB issue. It was cleared by the time I hit 15', so again no biggie.
5) Went low(er) on air than planned due to problems. I have a 19 cuft sling, so again it wasn't an issue.
I can't wait to dive the Zeb again - it's a cool wreck!
