Sunday afternoon with Bandito ....

Post by sandman98007 »

What more can I say. KVI and Maury Island. Vis pretty good under the blooms. Critters abound. 2 great dives. What a way to end the weekend.

A few shots and videos ... the show runs a little long.

This was my first Puget Sound dive charter, and I have to say Bandito did a great job! The boat was well laid out, plenty of space, stable, and the dry parts were dry. And the crew, Rick and Jackie, were great; capable, CLEAR!, and cheerful all day.

I had a great time! Our dives went well (not counting my fumbling the bag!), and I can't wait to do it again.

Thanks, everybody!

What a day to be out on a boat! It was nice to see Jackie, Captain Rick, Babs and Bob again. And meet other divers.

KVI was a very interesting dive. I saw there my first decorated war bonnet. Would dive it again a few times.

No kidding! and what a great view of Tahoma!

Thank you very much for everything Jackie and Rick! It was a great opportunity to meet new divers! Ciao!

At the KVI Tower I saw a Red Irish Lord and at the Maury Island Barges tons of bright green Pen Point Gunnels. I have to go back there as soon as I more successful in taking damn underwater pictures!
