Talk about cutting it close!!! Today is day two of the OW/Drysuit Diver course open water dives for Jess A-G and Phillip G. The weather yesterday was fantastic, water temps were comfortable and the vis was great. Today we are contending with heavy rain that is on and off. The air temp is warmer than yesterday, water temps are the same and the vis is near as good. Over their first four dives Jess and Phillip have seen a huge lobster, connors, crabs, jellyfish, cod, starfish, sea urchins, sand dollars, lumpfish, skate and lots of kelp. Not telling them yet that they have completed their OW certification dives. One more dive to do for their drysuit cert, one more skill to do and I need to keep them motivated because they have seen most everything this dive site has to see! Jess, in-particular, is excited to do a Dive Against Debris. So too is Phillip, just think he is playing it cool. But then I know they are both excited because once we are at it they are debris collectors extraordinaire. And they do a great job at it while practicing buoyancy skills and maintaining the nice proximity of a more skilled buddy team. We call the turn when their collection bag is full. So full in fact that if it has seams it ripped at the seams. We move most of their debris into my larger bag. They get a little lesson on using a lift bag! What a great dive. What a great haul. What great certified divers to dive with. Yes they passed. What about cutting it close? Today is Friday. On Monday they head out for their honeymoon! Cutting it close? Yes, but not like they are getting married on Saturday or anything like that. They got married four years ago! Cutting it close because they want to dive on their honeymoon! They have fully earned that right. Thanks guys for a great course and thank you for capping it off with a great Dive Against Debris.
This site is adjacent to a marina and a squid jigging grounds of some renowned. Given the proximity of the large number of glass and aluminum beverage containers it is highly probable that sailors from the marina and/or fishermen chose to heave their expended containers overboard rather than landing them. There is significant evidence to confirm that most of this debris deposited on the sea bed was done so years ago. It seems as though the thoughtless disposal of such items is not a common practice of significance presently. As for the other items collected, more work to be done there in quelling the practice of using the ocean as a dump site.
A few days of firm north winds. The subsequent wave action was such that the physical profile of the beach was altered to some degree. This is not unusual.
