Hope this helps

I hear that Peacock is diveable (but lowered viz) doesn't bother me but I'm feeling greedy. I was hoping that someone had been there the last few days to report conditions before I make lodging plans for the weekend. :-)
oops....see next post
Ok Angie.......where are your gills ??? :-DQuote:

I can do a dive at .4 if I do really well or I pay extra attention but more commonly I'll run .4 at rest .50-.55 scootering and .65 swimming. Kathleen can usually beat me by 5% or 10% unless the pace picks up too much. Dawn usually beats both of us and she says Lloyd is an awesome breather as well.Quote:

Glad to hear everything is clearing up. Hopeully, we can do Cow and Peacock soon after we get back. :-D
Did one dive at Peacock on Sunday. Peanut tunnel to olsen then main line then jumped to the well exit at peacock. I also dive 95s that dive was just over two hours with a little deco. The lines are placed a little different than before. Nice relaxing dive. vis was about 40ft flow was up from normal but not bad.
Lloyd
If you want to dive on the 21st(Sunday), let me know....I'm game for anywhere! I've got plans for Diepolder on the 19th.....some rebreather diving on the 20th....but I'm game for the 21st! Peacock? Cow? Edwards? "Backgas", single stage, double stage???Quote:
