We had hoped to dive the Tuggerah and battled the strong winds to get out to the location of the Tuggerah.  We tried and tried to hook up but couldn't.  The winds were very strong and kept pushing us away.  We gave up after a few attempts.  On the way out we came across a mooring, between Barrons and the Tuggerah in 32m depth.  We marked it on the GPS and will check it out soon.  It appeared to be made from a 25L drum and there was something more substantial some metres below the surface but we could not make out what it was. 

So back into the Bay and Six fathom reef.  This part of the reef, on the East side is quite interesting with gutters and gullies to explore.  In one we found a very large wobbigong resting.  My strobe going off startled it and it bolted deeper under a ledge.  Lots of cuttle around, with one following us around.  Also at the SE end of the reef an interesting piece of timber that we could not identify.  We had our surface interval at Gibbon Beach where Wayne attempted to find the sunglasses that he had lost there the previous week.
