Okay! I'm back!
We did some spring cleaning last week and got the engine tuned up by a pro. (Hall Engine in Ft. Lauderdale I was really impressed with them.) Anyway, I was still in the water almost every day with students, but no camera on those dives, and no real change in the water.
Saturday was too rough, and we canceled, but yesterday was downright nice. Seas were 2-4' there was a slight north current on the Bud and an almost non-existent flip-flopping current at Jerry's no name. The water was blue, but the vis wasn't so hot... maybe 40' on the wreck and 20' on the reef, but it was a foggy kind of viz, so somehow it didn't seem that bad. Water temps were 74F by my machine.
The viz on the Bud was a little off, but it was still a great dive. I couldn't find the big shark anywhere. Figures, as soon as I can get a camera in my hands down there.
Down4fun and a large hawksbill with entourage. While I was taking pictures of this turtle, a large male loggerhead swam over to me and nibbled on my waist strap. I heard Kim's underwater screams, and I felt the turtle messing with my strap, but I though it was Kim swatting at me to get my attention. No pics though, but the time I looked up he was already headed away.
