Duo-Divers

Some details on the boat

This is the 'type' of bottom which I was talking about, formed from loads of worm tubes, it's quite soft and sandy so can feel crunchy if your buoyancy control is poor.

I really struggled whilst looking for handles that 'spin or rotate' whilst you turn the reel, eventually I settled on machining a bit of brass with knurling for grip and mounting on a countersunk screw that wasn't tightened all of the way in

An immature cod (Gadus) this particularly colourful and lonesome specimen is obviously going to be a 'kelp cod' that's to say one of the sub-species(?) which stay inshore all year around and turn red as they age.

Some sort of winching arrangement, this is a large section of wreckage within a short distance of the boilers

Scenic showing the vis, spot the trash in this photo!

At last something recognisable, in this case a small calibre gun and associated turret

Broken bottom and divers!!

More wrecky bits against the reef face

A square 'chute' standing upright, pre-2019 this was flat so the storms have obvioulsy shifted about. I could have done with being lower to take a 'thru-photo' and a subject at the other side would have been good.

In this case the camouflage of the Pogge (Agonus cataphractus) wasn't good enough and this live fish was caught by a Velvet swimming Crab (Necora puber)

Lost fishing net, at least its not monofilament drift or tangle net!

Scenic stuff with Poor Cod, Pout and other small baitfish amoung the ribs and spars

You can see that the 'wall' is more a stepped solid stone reef, smothered in life.

The Grey Seal (Halichoerus grypus) returned for a little fin nibbling and finding that no-one really wanted to play he disappeared.

Dimensionally similar to a WW2 RP-3 rocket

A grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) doing 'cute' the reason loads of divers visit the islands
