Reef Cat, Jim Mims

By: Mike Rodriguez

This was a wonderful dive.  The conditions were good with a light
current and about 80 foot visibility.  The seas were running about
three feet on the way out, but came up a bit to 4+ feet by the time
we got back on the boat.  Unlike yesterday's dive on the Pappa's
Wreck, it was sunny today which made for a bright dive on the bottom.
I was diving trimix 16/48/36.

The current, like yesterday, was reversed; south on the surface and
north on the bottom.  In the excellent visibility we could see the
line describing a beautiful, giant catenary in the reversed
surface-bottom current.  I love good visibility!

During deco, a rainshower passed by.  We could see the raindrops
hitting the surface.  I hoped it was just rain and not a storm
which could have made getting on the boat difficult.  After a few
minutes, the rain passed and I relaxed.  After deco was complete,
we got back on the boat to find the captain wearing a raincoat.  :-)

Everyone had a great time!
