Comments and Feedback
First time to have this many divers at this site, and it was mostly free of debris! Most of these numbers came from 1 large mass or ropes and nets full of sinkers and buoy. I regret so many people came at a time of year when there was not much trash! Full video of the dive is here: https://youtu.be/dmcJsoj8Rkc
