We've (Endoman, Secondopsman and myself) just got back from Blue Lagoon after taking Secondopsman for his first dives since passing his OW
Basically a normal first dive, Gun, plane, platform, lost on the way to the "cave"
I'd like to blame Endomans navigation as he was leading, but I was at the back checking his bearings and my compass was doing a Captain Jack Sparrow again. We found the platform though and bimbled back via the boat where I got the first shot of Secondopsman taken underwater
Second dive was more like a normal Blue Lagoon dive, over to the cave, follow the bearings written off the map. Surface after realising we are lost to find we've been going in the wrong direction entirely. Surface swim to the bouy of the attraction we were aiming for, sink and off we go again. 20 mins later, back upto the surface as we're lost again, to find that the bearings on the map are the wrong way around and we needed the reciprocal heading. Massive surface swim back to the lorry, got to the bouy where Endoman spotted a fish
a baby roach according to Secondopsman. Descended again, had a look around the lorry then back.
Spent a total of 1:01 on the second dive, but with the surface swims the Suuunto has logged it as 3 dives
with the surface swims and submerged time we spent about an hour and a half in the water with me in a wetsuit. As it was also the second dive it was getting a bit cold especially with Endomans sedentary pace and the 6C water.
Viz was about 4-5M unless you were behind us when it was the square root of fook all, sorry to anyone else trying to dive there today
When we were leaving they were moving some of the attractions with huge lift bags and a rhib, pormpting Endomans protestations that we were never lost, the bastards must've been shifting things while we were in there
