Dive Report Green Bridge Newport RI

[AfterDark]

dive 2033 Sat.7-19-14 FaithC and I did a very active dive today. The surface was rough, sky was hazy, vis <5' - 10' in spots lots of surge, hold on to the bottom strength surge. I got bad cramps in my hamstrings, probably from my workout the night before coupled with the surface swim and finning into surge and current also at times. Water temp was 65-67F, bot time 55 min total dive time 1hr20min, max depth 25 feet, used 2500 psi of 21%. Not the best dive. The conditions left over from the storms that passed were a lot worse than I had expected. Ya never know quite what to expect when diving in RI. Thanks for the dive Faith looking forward to diving with you again.

I had a great time, loved the site and riding the surges was a first for me. Definitely one of the better shore dive sites. Thank you for the tour! Already looking forward to next time.
