This is a question that has had me puzzeled for years. Personally I have dove Farnsworth over 50 times. Each time it is beautiful. Yet it remains very dangerous. There seems to be no apparent reason for this. It is no deeper than many spots at Catalina, or many other spots at other islands. We never dive it with raging currents or high seas, so it usually will have good vis. In fact many times myself and the Charter Master will look for excuses not to dive there.
The facts remain that it is very dangerous,but again, WHY?
