First dive with Excal

[Raven69]

I've had my Excal for a couple of months now and love using it on the beach and wading. So yesterday I decided to take it to the next level and take it for a dive.

I have to say I haven't had as much fun in a long time! working near an old jetty in about 3.5 metres of water there were targets every where. Most were modern with only one old penny being found.
I spent an hour on the bottom and only covered and area about the size of a large dinning table. I found using my had to fan the sand away worked well.

Very much looking forward to getting back down there.

HH.

That must be nice. I remember reading about a diver who found a drop off at the outter edge of a swimming area. It dropped straight off so it was much too deep for people waiding to detect. He found a slew of rings and silver coins down there.

That sounds like a lot of fun. I can't dive (or afford to!) but maybe some day I'll give snorkeling a try.
