leave me severely underweighted, I need to have 4 rocks stuffed
in my BCD before I can sink, resulting in minimal buoyancy control.
The BCD is too big so the tank is loose, at one point I manage to confuse
the buttons and start dumping air in an attempt to get lift!
But these got sorted out.
The scenery wasn't quite up to my expectations, most coral was dead and the scenery was Malta-like; the highlights were spotting a huge puffer and spotting live, pulsating "umbrella" coral for the first time (since my intro). Links:
