We entered a little closer towards the pier; we were hoping that visibility would be better with less students nearby.

We swam out a little ways and John submerged – everyone followed.

John led us down and around the shelf just like countless dives before.

I couldn’t see all the divers all the time due to the poor visibility.

Jim took off sometime during this dive due to him running low on air.

There was nothing special or interesting about this dive.

Both Tom and Jerry graduated.
