Comments and Feedback
The dive shop gave me a tank with only 100bar, and by the time i got to the dive site, set up gear and realized it they were already gone...so I had to just settle for a very shallow and rather short dive. Turned out good however and was able to cut free a large mass of ropes and nets. Long pipe also. Video of the entire dive here - https://youtu.be/2NJIJebv0mw
