Wednesday's (July 7) Maui pics

[Gilligan]

Maui's South Shore diving conditions were poor today due to an ocean swell. Even after launching between the sets and paddling to 80 feet, the vis was still poor.

Nice. Is that a barnicle or a worm on the crab?

 

[Gilligan]

synthetic,
You got me on that question. It looks like a tiny Xmas Tree Worm to me.

Per usual great photos. thanks. Oh, by the way nice website you got..very informative. now you could only fit one tank on that kayak..hu?

 

[Gilligan]

Scuba65,
Thanks for the compliment on my website. Yes, that kayak is designed to hold one tank. The Cobra 'Fish n Dive' model can hold two tanks. I only do a one tank dive since I am retired and can dive often.
