Dive Report 4 February

I just returned from seeing family and doing some skiing in upstate New York. Look what followed me home! We had sixty-eight degrees for our water temperature today in ten feet of vis. Three of us were trying our new drysuits for the first time and what a pleasure it was. Sixty-eight degrees is very comfortable in the drysuit. Carrie was too warm! We saw an octopus, a flying gurnard, a shortnose batfish, and a seahorse. Not bad for ten feet of vis. I believe the little puffers were shivering. Chances are with the north wind we had today blowing up whitecaps on the Intracoastal, the vis at the bridge will be short for a few days. I'll let you know. I am there tomorrow with an open water student. Get in the water (just know how to stay warm), Ham
