Trip Report - Wedding Cake Island
Another sunny winters day with conditions flat as a tack!
2 dives, the first at 'The Waterfall' - Sydney Nth Head (26m) and the second at 'The Colours' Sydney Sth Head (16m). Viz ranged from 15-20m on the first dive to 10-15m on the second dive with a fair amount of surge experienced on the second dive. A highlight included a massive 1.5m diameter ray, plenty of soft coral and a blue groper that decided to harass me.

The big seas on Friday night had dies back to a slow rolling swell which, with the light westerly’s, made for a fast run up to Long Reef from Rose Bay on Yves boat. The fist dive of the day was the Dunkenfield, a 50m collier which hit long reef & sank in 1889 and now sits at 25m. The large two cylinder engine is still sitting upright amongst the splattered plates with the boiler just off to one side. Stu made a good effort of examining every inch of it in the gloomy conditions.

Trip Report - South West Rocks: Six of the Best
Pete and I were the first to arrive at the ‘Superior Riverside accommodation’. It did what it said on the tin, being a comfortable, well appointed modern cabin. We bagged our beds and waited for the rest of the gang to show up and when they did they promptly re-arranged the sleeping arrangements. A few drinks later it was off to bed ready for an early start.
The next morning we were on the boat and on the way to Fish Rock. I chose Fish Rock Cave for my first dive and, because it was so good, ...

A most excellent dive. Yves is offering a 'buy one, get one free' deal for May so we all had a double dive for 35 each.. fantastic. The boat is quiet and fast, with loads of space.. what more would you want (bring your own Tabasco for the soup). There was a bit of a sea running so Becs did a good job of feeding the fish (moral... pharmaceuticals are good!), but it was slight, certainly nothing to make getting out of the water difficult.
There were 4 divers from the club on board. Yves too...
