Nick is back for Memorial Day from his contract work in Cleveland.<\/p>\n

Wanting to go diving with decent visibility, he sprang for the boat ride and parking.<\/p>\n

Thanks Nick!<\/p>\n

\"Me<\/p>\n

We took the 6 AM boat over.<\/p>\n

On the first dive, we went to the right off the stairs.<\/p>\n

I tested my auxiliary regulator and sucked in water.<\/p>\n

I pointed to the mouthpiece and gave Nick the “out of air” signal and pointed to my spare air.<\/p>\n

Nick surprisingly wanted to go deep.<\/p>\n

I suggested the Sujac, a wreck that starts at 70 feet.<\/p>\n

Low and behold, we actually found the wreck; the mast is at 70 feet.<\/p>\n

\"Me,<\/p>\n

I sat on the mast to pose for a picture – I’m not really sure why.<\/p>\n

I was getting a little narced, feeling sort of buzzed as we went down to 90 feet where the rest of the boat is.<\/p>\n

\"We<\/p>\n

We swam through the holes in the side of the Sujac.<\/p>\n

We messed around the wreck for a few minutes and started heading up the reef…<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

… slowly making our way back to the stairs while enjoying the sights.<\/p>\n

\"Casino<\/p>\n

We sort of argued during our surface interval about whether a slow ascent over the sloping reef is a safety stop; I say it is, Nick thinks it is not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
