Comments and Feedback
I am not sure why, but the form autofill is no longer working for me when I fill out surveys.
We went in 3 people for a PADI DMT mapping project, and to familiarize the two others with the area for a larger cleanup event coming soon. The water was just nasty and vis was barely 1 meter. We didnt intend to remove debris but as they say never let a dive go to waste..even when diving in low vis water. The anchor was a tough one to remove alone, but it made a great centerpiece for our evening camping
