Hi folks, this morning we dove the Tug Boat (again) by popular request, it was a bit windy out there but we all managed to do a somewhat simultaneous backroll entry and descend without any drama. They found the wreck quite easily and discovered a really huge Green Moray Eel. “thats the largest ‘D…’ eel Ihave ever seen” commented one very experienced diver….. two others expressed their similar sentiments. Pinky, my great divemaster, found the dive knife that was lost days before by another diver a few days ago. He thouhgt it was lost at the famous Throne Room.We had searched  twice after that and never saw it, and behold! here..at the tug boat in a sand patch near to the wreck.. we werent even looking any more and there it is.

We had some of the good Jamaican sugar cane and other refreshments and chatted while I cruised to the Sands Club Reef where we hooked up to the mooring line and told them on the story of how I met Nancy the 12 ft Nurse shark and how we almost became …….Intimate…….lol …….. I also pointed out where to look for Herman and Hilda the pair of gracious spotted eagle rays.  Afew splashes and 40 minutes later they surfaced with a barage of compliments on the dive. We took the sceenic route back in to avoid the water splashing back in the boat as the wind was still a bit strong, you should have heard some of the tips and stories as every one now very relaxed, chatted away on the easy ride to our base at the Mariners Negril Beach Club.

I LOOK FORWARD TO MORE DIVES WITH GREAT PEOPLE. DIVERS ARE THE BEST !!!!!!
