这个周末天气不错,club决定拉船到victor harbour的west island,让我兴奋得不得了。
这个潜点算是在南大洋了,我之前所有的潜水其实都是在海湾里面,这里四周风景好多了,而浪也非常大。下水以后,能见度一般,离岛很近水却特别深。这里的各种软珊瑚,海绵很多。鱼没看到很多,但最令人兴奋的是在石缝里面,发现不少龙虾。大大红红的龙虾就傻傻的呆在那里,真是很诱人啊!可惜现在不是龙虾季节,而且也没带尺子,肯定是不能捉的了。。
这次有个问题,气用得很快,一方面是洋流比较大,还没学会怎么省力地游,然后心情也比较紧张,呼吸频率比较高。最后气留得太少了。以后一定要注意。

发现同行的gev写了一篇不错的日记,也摘在这里:

On Saturday the 5th of September, 8 divers headed out to dive West Island off Victor Harbor.
The crew consisted of Skipper Sam, (his mate) Kathy, Aaron, cello(edited by cello), Aleks, Mike and myself. The drive along the coast revealed what looked like a pleasantly flat sea , but as I have learnt in the past “don’t judge a book by its cover”. With the swell coming in at about 2 metres we decided to anchor the boat in an unexplored section of the island on the southern side.
Once anchored Aaron and Kathy headed down the anchor line followed by myself and Mike, and may I say Kathy looked fantastic heading down that anchor line in her brand new dive gear. The viz was not the greatest, probably about 5-6 metres but the dive was fantastic over all. At the bottom was the most crayfish I have ever seen in one spot. I thought I was narked off my head for a minute there but my sightings were confirmed by all the other divers. Nunigy, bullseyes, and a big school of old wives were also on parade for the divers. Maximum depth at this sight was 27 metres but there is plenty to see in the shallower sections.
I would like to mention a special thanks to our skipper Sam who did a fantastic job with the boat and didn’t even get to dive (bloody sinuses).
Over all it was a fantastic day down at Victor and I recommend everyone try to get out and dive the West Island it is well worth the trip.
