Met with Jeff Shaw (sockpuppet for Jeff Shaw) this morning at Marineland. The objective was to find the structure that may have been the loading platform from the old pier. We were unsuccessful, but we did manage to spend about 40 minutes looking at sand and sea pens. The visibility at depth was barely over five feet. When we arrived back at the nearshore reef the vis opened up to 15 feet, where we found a single octopus, one lobster, a school of Blacksmith and not much else. The waves weren't large, but close together just enough to knock us down on entry and exit. Temperature at depth was 51F. Still, a very fun way to spend a Sunday morning.
