Back to Lobos today with a lot more company---was told there was one open spot left when we arrived. The water was much flatter and tide low on the ramp. We kicked out and dropped near the Cannery Point Wall and wandered through the rock channels till we emerged in ~74feet of water just shy of the lone metridium. We reversed from there, headed over to hole in the wall and wandered back along the wall 'til the vis and surge motivated us to surface.
The visibility was mixed. Out by LM it was 40+ feet. Most of the dive, though, the upper water column had good vis but the bottom 10 to 20 feet of water had a lot of sand in it reducing the vis to a highly variable 10 to 20feet (or worse). It was a little frustrating to look up to clear water and horizontal at sand. Saw a couple of sea lions, a lingcod & the usual assortment of rockfish.
The min water temperature was 54F.
New wrist seals resolved the drysuit leak I reported Tuesday.
