For me, another birthday usually means just another day on the water. I’ve had birthdays at anchor and birthdays underway, birthdays at the pier and birthdays just floating around. But today, when I hit 25 and said adios to my first quarter of a century, I knew that this birthday would truly be once-in-a-lifetime. How […]

Ya Never Know! Nothing too eventful on the first two dives today. Just the usual, Galapagos Sharks, White Tip Sharks and Silver Tip Sharks, :). Lots of them piled up in the cavelets. Had to fight quite a bit of current a couple of times. And then the third dive. Looked to be a repeat […]

Dolphin frenzy at the Boiler this morning. After splashing in at 0800 with the sun rising around San Ben we dropped in on the usual manta residents of the Boiler. With 5 soaring in and clear 90 foot vis things were going the usual way that I have been used to until the spot light […]
