Playing catch up...

We'll see how this goes... not promising anything....

8/19 & 20 - Dry Tortugas National Park
The trip was originally planned to visit Cay Sal Banks in the Bahamas - but weather turned for the worse, and we opted for a trip to the Dry Tortugas & Fort Jefferson instead of 4 hous of pain crossing the channel... The trip was organized by Dean Marshall for a few like minded DIR divers - purely recreational fare.




The Windjammer


Lobsters!


Reef Dive....



8/25 - Boynton Beach, FL; Splashdown Divers, The Captain Tony
Spent friday afternoon w/ the wonderful folks at Splashdown, nicer reefs in Boynton compared to Pompano - alot more to distract you when lobstering! First dive was on the Captain Tony, I managed to shoot some decent video with the new camera setup. Unfortunately once the Goliath Groupers hear divers coming - they run to their hiding spot. The good news - we know where it is - and they don't fear divers who get a little close, so I got some good video. Met up w/ Darren & Mika who volunteered to spot lobster on the reef dive. Walked away with one 5oz. and 9oz. tails - dinner was served.
