Comments: Jeff took a broken guitar and I took a rusty steel 95 to add to the Redondo Monument. I duct taped the opening so the tank wouldn't be too heavy. It floated instead. We fought our way through the surf and dropped down, hoping to find squid and the monument. We didn't find either. Due to the poor vis, we missed the Monument and swam all the way to the Topaz Jetty at 65 feet, sucking down air way too fast. We found a sixteen inch worm that I haven't identified yet. The only pictures I got were closeups of the top of my tank and the names we scratched into Jeff's guitar. Rather than carrying that stuff back through the surf, we made a new monument. :D
