Another day in paradise....



We had some good dives today. I've got a fun family group of 6 on board for a few days. Today we had a couple of nice dives. Highlights of the dives included moray eels, Bandit angels, a couple of flame angels, puffers, a rather large spotted eagle ray, and other cool stuff. Oh yeah, did I mention dolphins? I took this pic this morning, it's in grayscale and the contrast is turned up so it shows... dolphins sort of blend into the blue of the ocean so it's really tough to get a great photo unless you are only a few feet away. We don't get dolphins while on dives all that often, we usually see them on the surface but not underwater, but sometimes we get lucky, this time I actually had a camera on hand. This group probably came within 20-30 feet of us a couple of times.

...more later.....

The question we all in the cyber world want to know is..."Is the boat done yet? If so we want to see pics and know what Bob thinks about it.

Unfortunately the fiberglass guy disappeared for 2 weeks, so the boat's been sitting there on stilts. Supposedly he's back on Monday. I'm getting antsy.

At least we've got a backup boat available most of the time. It's a boat I worked off of for 3 years and Bob worked off it too when he first came over so it's like old times for us.

I'll have a full report on the rebuild once it's done.
