Focus Light - Edmonds UWP

Post by Sebastes »

Good evening All - I was entering at Edmonds UWP just north of the jetty at low tide when my focus light popped off and fell into the thick Ulva bed. As I did not notice immediately, I couldn't find the exact spot and was unable to recover the light. If anybody runs in to a Sola 1200 in that area, would you please let me know?

Independent of that, I have thoroughly enjoyed diving in Puget Sound over the past few years :-)

Those SOLA Connections are unreliable and have known several people that have lost their lights.
I strongly recommend zip tying it off on one of the strobe arms.
Hind sight, I know, but going forward.

It's lost to Davy Jones's Locker my suggestion is to call Edmonds Underwater Sports but most likely it's gone

A young lady lost her's on Waterman's Wall. She did numerous searches to no avail. Yet, it was returned intact if a bit covered with growth a year later. Good things can happen.
