June done with the first dive in my new dry suit! My son’s first proper dive in my old suit.
49 mins at a training lake on Cape Cod, 79F at the surface and 47F at 34’. Ludicrous thermoclines but good vis.

Sneaking in last this month. Birddog and I made the run out to Spring Lake for a nice 75 minute dive at Riverbed & Catfish. Viz, lack the last few months, has not been great and lots of heavy vegetation build up from diversion right through to catfish.
Should have been last week but I twanged my old-man back a couple of weeks ago. Felt really good to get back in the water for some weightlessness. Anyone know if you can get Nitrox on your HSA
