Flying Cloud

Our first day of diving dawned with Patricia, and the destination of the day was to be North Seymour, where we had been with the Cloud exactly one week before.
As we approached the site i spied a rather tall looking mast on the South side belonging to a large white boat - was it Elvis?
We quickly pulled up next to them and yes - it was the Dent's. After a large amount of reunion "Oi Oiing", we agreed to meet for dinner on Sunday night.

The dive was my first "back flip" off of quite a high (out of the water) boat, but it all went quite smoothly.

We got down to 24m, and the dive lasted 36min - although Matt got separated from us whilst looking at several white tipped sharks.
Below i'm trying to check my new dive compass / computer (or am i synchronising my watch to set some explosives)?

Matt found that being under the water made him come over all meditational.

Jenny on the other hand decided it was important to wear a bubble disguise to avoid paparazi.
