Sunday, August 3rd - Damn fine day on the "Damn Boat"

Captain Geoff graciously hosted Steffen, Paul, Dan H, Bree P, and Dan T on Sunday. We spent the day diving Halfway Rock.

The weather was beautiful, water was warm with a mild current, viz was 30+ easy. Lots of bugs (Dan T hit his bag limit, photo by Steffen) and an abundance of marine life was observed.

Around noon people began surfacing after the second dive to the wonderful aroma of Porterhouse steaks cooking on the grill (Compliments of Steffen, and cooked to perfection by the Captain) and a huge pot-luck lunch was served in the cabin as a brief T-storm passed overhead. No one seemed to mind because we were all busy with fresh shrimp cocktails, homemade 'tater salad, sushi, watermelon, and garden salads as we talked over our dives.

The sun came out again and everyone caught some rays on deck over a few cold ones. It was such a perfect day that those in attendance unanimously rated it as "The best dive of the year...thus far."

Paul and Steffen brought their cameras and really took advantage of the conditions, we will be having one heck of a photo contest this year!

CHEERS
