Had a charter this weekend on SeaQuest II out of Discovery Diving to the Indra with a group of wreck diving students from Raleigh. The wind was wild early in the day on Saturday, but died down by lunch time. Sunday, the day was calm winds and gentle 1' seas. Vis has improved on the Indra from 10' a week ago to 30' this weekend. Water temps are hovering around 71 degrees. Saw a school of 20 big Amberjack cruising around the wreck. Spadefish, Sand Bar Shark, Barracuda, Filefish, Grouper, Sheepshead, and a juvenile angel fish (French maybe? It was black with yellow stripes and a blue chin/cheek area. It was 2" in length.) Sunday was a beautiful day to be on the water!
 
The Indra looks much different than she did when she was first sunk in 1992. Recent storms have really taken their toll on the ship, but it's a good close-in wreck that's still reasonably intact. Discovery is still in business (has been for the last 35 years) and is still going strong!
