Re: Viz Reports Thread
Keystone on Saturday, 7-7-18. A dirty 10 ft along the jetty and pilings. There were a few spots in the shallows in-between where it was a sunny 15' in the kelp. Really pleasant. Also, the missing Lings may be returning

Saltwater State Park on 7/15: horizontal visibility was 25' plus. Vertical visibility was such that shimmering light from the surface was still visible at 50'. Temperature was a balmy 54 degrees at depth.
Re: Viz Reports Thread
Mukilteo T-Dock on Saturday 7-14-18. Got in at the low minus 3 tide. Vis was 6" down to 5ft, then about 2-5ft of algae bloom toilet water to 20ft or so. Below that it opened up to a clear 20-30ft from the dome all the way down to the man. It was really nice. Not much crab there this year but i still got enough to make last nights dinner extra delicious.

Re: Viz Reports Thread
Rockaway Beach Park, Bainbridge Island, 7/16 -- 12-15ft visibility at depth, murky 'n green in the shallows.
We hit it about an hour before high tide. Current was mild, maybe half a knot to the south. Entered at the buoy, followed the line out to the first reef, then followed downslope to the second ~90ft reef. Plenty of anenome, sea cuces, crabs, and stars. No wolf eels or octo. Two nudibranchs. My buddy thinks he saw a shark rolling past the shallow reef, but I'm not convinced.

Sun 7-15 - Mukilteo T-Dock
Milky white viz was about 6-12" down to about 30' then it opened up, getting better as we went deeper. We probably had 20' or so at 130'.
Hit the geodome on the second pass through, lot's of fish hanging out, including a big rat fish.
Pretty good current though and it was depth dependent. Wasn't too bad below 100', wasn't too bad above 40', definitely wished we had brought scooters for that in between depth.
Breakfast after at the DK brewery was awesome with a chicken fried steak and an Irish porter with a shot of espresso in it!

Re: Viz Reports Thread
7/21 - Redondo. Pretty good viz like 20-30ft(?), somewhat varied with depth and time, looked better below 40ft. We did 2 dives around 12:30pm and 3pm.
Re: Viz Reports Thread
Sun 7-22 - Port Townsend Waterfront
Awesome in the 0-10' depth, then it was murky until about 50' and then opened to 20'~ at depth
Splashed around noon at the Maritime Center and @60South had the timing spot on, the current was pretty much non-existent and we had a nice leisurely hour dive out the rocks to the barge then down down past the barge to the flats and slowly circled back around to the boat launch.
