The east winds finally shifted so we left Key Largo enroute for the Bimini Islands in the Bahamas. We stopped at a few of the snorkelling spots on the Florida Barrier Reef during the day, the first one being Dry Rocks, where Christ of the Abyss resides. At 2.5m, it weighs around 260 kg, and the concrete base about 9 tons. It is one of several copies of an original bronze statue near Portifino, in the Mediterranean. It was placed there in 1954 and is near the spot where Dario Gonzatti, the first Italian to use SCUBA gear, died in 1947!
