Notes du plongeur

ADVANCED - NIGHT DIVE

GEAR: No wetsuit. Felt like I had too much weight. Less streamlined.

Conditions: Waves. Surge all the way to bottom.

SEA SICKNESS: Fighting sea sickness w/ 1 Dramamine on the way for a 30 min boat ride (Boat = Panga 115 HP). On the verge of puking as I entered the water.
Puked in my REG after ~ 30 min. Puked my guts out at the surface ~ 10x. Was still sick after 2 days.

ISSUE:
Got to safety stop nicely and controlled but due to communication error w/ coco, we cut the safety stop too short.

Nice controlled descent w/ coco. Started w/ basic new skills that went well. Saw many fish and plankton bioluminescence.

FIRSTS:
1) Another buddy grabbed a puffer and made it expand.
2) Started knowing fish names
3) Puked underwater
4) Night Dive
