Today, March 21, 2006 the seas were millpond. We swapped
boats to Putri Laut as were were joined by 3 German divers. She is
quite a bit larger and much more spacious. Cologne Gardens is on the
West side of Horsburgh Island and features deep wall drop offs. I
hit a maximum depth of 40.3m and there was quite a depth of water below
me. This was a special dive as it was Aaron's 100th. And we
have photos to prove it as well, taken at 40m. The fans and fish
on the wall were fantastic but the fish life was just as good on the
shelf at 9 to 15m which is where we spend most of our time.
Despite the depth we still managed a 75 minute dive, thanks to most of
that time being at around 10m. |
