Destination: Source Nouveau
Again, had the whole cave to ourselves. Scootered the main line to 3,325 and parked scooters. Took the left at the T. Swam ~1,000 feet into Source Nouveau. Lots to see there. Turned when we got tired of swimming.
As always, vis was stellar in JB. Flow seems down since May.
Great dive.
Total distance covered: 4,325 feet.
Total run time: 2 hours.
.
I was there early in the morning of the 4th and we also had the place to ourselves. There was a Triathlon going on though so the park was packed with folks. Only other divers we saw were some folks that were probably just doing the cavern and we just passed them by the stop sign as we were heading in for our second dive.
Ditto to PacketSniffer on the flow. I don't scooter dive yet so I can tell you for sure that the flow has gone down significantly since April and a little since May.
how was the scooter speed ;)....Quote:

Good since I heard good things about the X before trying yours. Any chance of an upgrade for yours ?Quote:

Yeh, I can get the newer electronics which I am in the process of getting.Quote:

You sure that was me (rebreathers and scooters)? We were getting in the water pretty late at JB . There was only one other person there getting in at the same time and he was solo. I don't remember passing anyone in the cavern either.Quote:
