On Saturday the 1st, I joined the Sea Divers on the Great Escape for a trip to Farnsworth Banks. The weather was great: there was a quick squall in the middle of the night that I didn't really notice, and we spent a day on pretty flat water under sunny skies. We got two dives in at Farnsworth and went to Catalina, to Black Rock, on the front side, for a long gate time for the rest of the day. It turned out that there were several other LAUPS members on the boat (Walter Marti and Linda Blanchard) as well as two OCUPS members (Walter Marti and Linda Blanchard). Naturally, we set up an informal shootout. The OCUPS team suffered a minor setback on the 2nd dive, when Walter's drysuit leaked, and the LAUPS team graciously leveled the playing field when their videographer volunteered to also sit the dive out. We'll hear about the results at the next meeting!
