Well despite leaving most of my Thurs. mornings breakfast in a barf bag I had a good time. We encountered seas a bit rougher to say the least than NWS predicted---things do change quickly 110 miles out at sea!! Despite my late Wed. night and early day Thurs. motion sickness I got in 4 dives---what a treat! We saw seas from 2 to 6ft in more of a swell form/heavy chop as compared to waves.....the boat was rocking in ALL directions at once. Man those 5-6ft. jobbesr would really roll that boat. Thurs. first 2 dives were in 2-3ft.seas,,,3rd. dive seas were 3-4ft.....4th. dive seas were close to 5ft....... night dive sea was a strong 5/maybe 6ft.,, Melanie told me this data (I would ask her every dive to get a mental picture for future trips)....on Fri. seas were again strong 4 to near 5ft. both dives. Food and crew were great....trip leader all were very helpful and nice. We had a full boat of folks,,, a few teenagers....several women....mostly men. I only know of one minor injury outside of motion sickness and that was a girl got a few leg stings from a jelly. I saw TONS on fish.....barracuda- and they were big,,,,huge angle fish,,,,,sting ray-WOW,,,,,ells,,,,,lobster,,,,,,red brittle star,,,,,puffers,,,,,groupers,,,,,sea worm,,,,,,corals/sponges and lots of schooling fish that looked like clouds in the sky.A few saw a shark and a manta ray. My gear all worked well,,, my deepest dive was 90ft.. We of course watched the movie 'Open Water'--lol. I was seated in the dining area eating a snack and the boat was in 5-6ft. seas,,,,I would look out the port side window and see nothing but sky/clouds....turn and look out the starboard window and see sea foam and water!!! It was nice to get on land were the 'head' was in one spot and not moving!!! Saw lots of oil rigs,,,but seas were to rough to allow us the dive on one this trip. Water temp. was 84'..s at the upper water colume with various therm. that would drop the temps into the mid 70's. Vis was on average I would say 70-80ft.. Fun trip and I learned alot....met some new friends also.....got a suv. cup and t-shirt. Later Alan
