Comments and Feedback
Due to persistant high waves on weekends, unexpected travel to the US, drysuit issues/repairs and a shoulder injury all over the fall and winter this was the first DAD survey since September! I will make up the average over the course of 2025. Video of the entire dive here: https://youtu.be/lWqkwrZGCjs
