Greetings Divers,
I hope y'all had a fun weekend and are enjoying this awesome weather!
Yellow Eye, LeAnne L, Scott and I got to try out the newest dive boat in the Hood Canal. The YSS Dive shop (old Hoodsport and Dive) now has a boat. It is located right next to the dive shop. So you just park there and they lug the gear from your car to the dive boat for you. They have an amazing skipper, crew and staff. JohnY and Katherine own the shop and John is the captain.
The boat Saltwater Therapy is small but really nice, super fast and can fit 4 divers. They had coffee, tea and snacks on board.
We got 2 really fun dives in. .. just wish viz was a bit better, but was so happy to see really nice rockfish. A few big YellowEye and really nice Vermillion... and lots of little jellyfish and many other fun critters. The sea cucumbers were going wild down there.
After the dives the staff was there to unload our gear and lug it up the super steep ramp (crazy low tide) and dropped it next to the rinse station. It was so much fun. Followed by some Mexican food.
I hope you guys can check it out sometime.
Here are a few topside snaps

Great report! I really liked the ladder on that boat too!
Hood canal diving definitely isn't as good as the San Juans or even Keystone but that was a really fun time for a change! I hope they start going further out on that thing.
