Two other members of the SB and myself (bobby-in-mass and all4scuba05) started the day at 1100hrs at the Boston Shipyard and Marina which is where Boston Diver Services operates from.

Every body showed, and we were ready to go by 1115hrs, it was a very nice to see Paul BDS's Dive Master will be coming with us for this trip.

We arrived to the first site "the wreck of The city of Salisbury" and got in to the water by 1209hrs, Captain Pat Breen drop the anchor right on top of the wreck, the viz was incredible it was 15 to 20' we dove around the pinnacle for a while some marine life, flounders, crabs and small lobsters were all over the place the Max depth was 57' the temp was 48F and bottom time was 34 minutes it was a very nice slow dive fun.

We surface and after seeing a few lobsters we decide to go to a lobstering site for the second dive "The Graves Light" we got our bags, sticks and lights, we were all gear up for for the bugs hunting!!! we enter the water at the 1300hrs the max depth was 50' bottom time 48' the water temp in this place was 46F, Lots of life, from anemones, sea urchins, crabs to huge cods, after the dive Bob mention he spot a strippe Bass as well, and of course lobster fo our bad luck all the lobsters were to small to keep so we came back with empty bags but full hearts, the rocks formations and diferent colors around this area are really nice the rocks go from brown to pink and white and you never know what are you going to find under this rocks.

Over all a great dive, Pat and Paul great as always, plus i had the chance to meet two more divers from the SB, Thank you all guys it was great to meet you.

Yes i did, thank you
 
Glad you guys had a good time! Sorry I missed it, but driving back to Boston would have just been too much. I will have to get out with you soon, looking forward to getting in some boat dives.
