Give a man a fire and he's warm for the day. But set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life
People are more violently opposed to fur than leather, because it's easier to harrass rich women than motorcycle gangs!

It was the first time I dove the fingers. I think vis was probably typical 5-6 ft. Dove the 4th finger, macro life was pretty slim, but the normal stars and anenomes were there. Saw one ling about 2 ft and several small perch, greenling, and rocks.
Max depth 27 fsw, 55 degrees.

Hey Stan, good to meet you too. Tell Captain Marie thanks again. There definately is a low O2 event going on in Hood Canal right now which would explain the condition of all the critters we saw. There's a thread on it in the "General Scuba Discussion" section if you haven't seen it already. The charter went fairly well. Had a mask strap issue and a dump valve issue but go to see Waterman's Wall as we flew by in the current and Alki Reef. Alki Reef would be the perfect candidate for your Zodiac er, I mean Avonno excuses wrote:
. It was one of the best sites I have been to yet! Let me know of any plans for November.I also have to make it down to Newport this winter now that I know it is fairly unaffected by the swell and general nastiness of the ocean in Winter.
