Hi - It woud be interesting to know how you found the latest trip compared...

(hopefully you will remember slightly more of Net Rock

)

The most recent trip was really really nice. Boat captain said it was the flattest he had seen conditions in about 15 years.

We didn't do exactly the same sights, but the twilight/night dives were awesome -- 50+ feet of vis, and all you can see are HID lights all around you.

We did a site called "Swiss Cheese" which is basically a big old rock that looks like a bit of cheese -- littered with swim-throughs and small caves.

Farnsworth was not quite as good, but still awesome.

We go back for a 1-day trip to Clemente on Jan 8th (before the big Tech1-training program starts...)
