This is a first look at my dive environment. Let me know how it comes through.
Of course this is summer but functionally the same. Water temps range from 50 to about 34, 36 last week at 80'. Lots of whales, sea lions, octos, wolf eels and prow fish. Check that guy out on the net! A more beautiful place I have yet to find. Did some Florida diving last year and am planning on some Sea of Cortez this year.

Hey Garfish, This is the time of year to dive. Too freaken cold to do anything else. We just keep small bats handy to wack each other with to break the ice. Guess most would settle with a glass of wine and small talk as an ice breaker!
Seriously, King crab are at about seventy feet, the water IS warmer than the air so why not? Wind causes us more problems, can't take the boat anywhere in gales.

I'll trade a week off eastern central and southern florida for a week in alaska, catching a king crab sounds like to much fun, I've lost the will for lobster, but crabs sound real good

Welcome Liveordive. Great pic. Where did you take it. I grew up on vancouver island in B.C so that picture really brings back great memories. Am going whale watching myself this summer.
