A single shore entry dive by Gary and Gail of 163 minutes. Maximum depth 6.2 m, 24 C water temperature and up to 3 m viz.
Another beautiful sunny day and a blue river awaited us. The vis was enough to see our finds and record them. After the dive we surfaced in a brown river. The vis stayed consistant. Our mission was to find the sponge that had all the Jorunna sp. and that Placida kevinleei. We did find it but the Placida was not there. That sponge had 11 animals on it! It was also nice to record Thuridilla carlsoni.
