Safari Night Dive Ross (Bridges of)

Well, as conditions were forecasted bad for Sunday, Myself, Emma, Ken, Mike and Dr. Tom dived Bridges of Ross. Dr. Tom was a surprised visitor on the night :-) but, all availed of some great diving over the course of the evening. Conditions were excellent, but had a great time diving, Mike was chef for the evening, out came the BBQ and the burgers and sausages were flying off the BBQ and Frying pan.

Despite the odd shower, Dave Ryan dropped by to supervise events, and the beer and the sausages went down all too well. Alas the call of the night dive grew stronger so myself, Mike and Emma kiited up and got in for a dive at just after 11pm. We heading for the usual route, wall on the north West side and led the group up the Gully and up to 6meter and out through the other gully out due west., but turned around and back through same path again. The compass went into meltdown on the way back, but, all in all nothing like a diving at sea at night, flat calm with loads of life out. 

We seen Congers out on the hunt, plaice, Lots of Lobster and crab. Ken our shore Marshall had been getting anxious awaiting out return. but we surfaced on the hour mark. Lovely relaxing night dive. The haul of gear back up was the only draw back across the slippery rocks. but, we sat down under the full moon's gaze recanting the events of dive, with Budweiser, Wine and Bulmers until the wee hours before retiring in to the tents for some sleep after 2am. Thanks to Mike for the BBQ. The Ghost stories were just the trick in this eerie spot. We'll have to do that again and bring something for a fire next time... Check out the photos on the Photo's tab.
