That is awesome!

I am going to try and make the clean-up, right now I'm scheduled for a boat dive, but if I can get a refund I'll do this instead.

You can ALWAYS boat dive!!

Thanks!

How was the turn out for this?
I really haven't seen much debris at Spansh Rocks, a few abandoned crab traps and some rope once in a while.

Last time I was out there several divers lost equipment. Some of it was recovered right away but some was never found. This could have been a good way to get some new gear!
