This is the shark that was bugging us during deco.  We clobbered it up-side the head with an aluminum 30 and took it home.


Bud N Mary's Marina

Captain Bob Rhea at the helm.

Barney couldn't wait to cook the lobster and resorted eating O-rings instead.

Tarpon eating scraps tossed in the water from the fish-cleaning table at the top of the picture.  Check out the movie link above...

OK, not only does he copy my chair, he also steals my umbrella when I was off shooting pictures...

Jeff tries to stay hydrated in the hot Florida weather...


Deanna, one of the open water divers along for the lobster hunt, riggs her gear.

Catch of the day!

The channel southeast out of the marina.  That's Alligator Reef Lighthouse in the distance.

Chasity, another open water diver along for the lobster hunt.

This weird thing was growing on Forest's Freighter near the starboard bow.  It's either a creature from from a George Lucas science-fiction film or a sponge.  We're still not sure which.

Barney hanging out before the dive...

The gang pigs-out at Islamorada Fish Company.

Joe preps gear before the dive.

Barney imitates a sea urchin.  You should see his puffer-fish imitation!

Melanie hangs out waiting for the rest of us.  How she manages to look so cool in the 90F heat, I'll never know...

Gawd, these sure are heavy out of the water.

Sleepy's Divemobile full of gear.
