Frog Fish in different spots

Bucketlist!, An Engagement!, and a 21st Birthday at 107 Feet! 4/18

This was an EPIC day on the Sea Fox.  The sun was peeking through the clouds, the wind was blowing and the Bucketlist request from Greg was the beautiful Corsair.  It was a little bumpy getting there but everyone was super excited.  Greg and Christy have been to the island three times, yes, three times to do the Corsair wreck.  We had a good current but everyone followed the rope system down and had a great dive.

Nicole went to the airplane thinking this was just another dive….boy did Aaron have something planned for her.  He was pretty sneaky and while Nicole was planning the trip with Mary at Island divers, Aaron was planning the proposal!!  We made it down the line and he pulled out the slate.  She said YES!!

Newly Engaged!

Alexa was celebrating her 21st birthday at the Corsair with her Sister and Brother in Law.  Everytime a checked on them they seemed to be really enjoying the dive!

It was still a little bumpy on the boat but everyone was a chatter about what they saw, what happened and how excited they were.  We laughed a lot and told some pretty corny jokes to pass the time.  Our next dive was at Spitting Caves, max depth 50 feet, viz kind of varied on this from 50 feet to 80 feet.  Everything I talked about in the brief we ended up seeing.  It was pretty amazing.  Shark, two frog fish in different spots, 3 free swimming octopus and about 6 turtles.  Not to mention the uncountable reef fish and eels.  It was such a nice relaxing dive we made it last for awhile.  It was such a relaxing dive, I am not sure anyone really wanted it to end.
