You did well. I've been several hundred yards away from a dredge and the vis where I was dropped to a couple of inches.

Mind you, diving a freshly dredged site a few weeks later is like floating over a moonscape. Even five or six years after the event the seabed still suffers, with completely different animals to what you'd expect to see in an area.
