    Logged Dive #235 – The Palawan Wreck

    The Palawan Wreck, Off of The Island Diver Boat
    Redondo Beach, CA

    Dove with “Scott” following Juan Twenty and “Chris” from the Divevets

    In With: 2900 psi
    Out With: 700 psi
    Max depth: 110 feet
    Waves: Mild chop
    Visibility: 20-30 feet
    Water Temperature: 55 degrees
    Total Bottom Time: 10 minutes at the wreck, 15 minutes ascending from the wreck

    Same thing as before, but we planned on going toward the bow.

    Mirek yelled at us and jokingly exclaimed, “I’m not doing a second dive, and I’ll be here drinking all your beer.”

    I followed Scott, Juan and Chris down the descent line.

    Tiny Jelly Fish was what caused the murkiness.

    Juan pointed out that the layer of murk was nothing more than millions of baby jelly fish.

    I really had to focus in on them!

    I was the last one down to the top of the ship.

    We followed Juan to the bow of the boat where we took a few pictures of this monumentous event.

    We made it back to the line a few minutes early.

    We strayed off to take a closer look at the surrounding area before starting our descent up the line.

    Crowded on the ascent line.

    It was sort of crowded on the way up from others doing their safety stops.

    Divers practiced Polish Buddy Breathing.

    Some divers even practiced “Polish Buddy Breathing.”

    The beers flowed freely once back up on the boat.

    My Dive buddies and I drink beer to help out gassing - just kidding.

    The only woman on board receives a lot of attention.

    We partied in the parking lot a little while before moving to Joe’s Crab Shack.

    Chris, who is apparently a rich oil tycoon sprung for the lunch!

    A great day of diving with top-notch people!
