A single solo shore entry dive by Gary of 161 minutes. Maximum depth 5.1 m, 24 C water temperature and up to 3 m viz.
With inclement weather on the way to the bottom of the river I went. The substrate had a nice thick coat of silt and the current was very mild. Getting confirmation as to the ID of a bubble shell and yet again Goniodoridella sp. 1 was common. A Bulbaeolidia alba with 3 rhinophores was also an interesting find.
