Sunday Dive with four divers (one had to abort) and Nautical Nick our non diving Cox made the most of flat calm seas, and a dry, sunny day to dive the Rosehill. The vis on the bottom was around 4-6m (not bad at all considering the bad weather lately) was a bit dark, probably due to the vis being quite milky and dense between 6m-15m. The Rosehill was heavily populated with pleny of Bib and Pouting and a few very large Cod. Also congor, crabs, lots of crawfish. Slight current towards the end, but we managed to cover most of the wreck. One of the best dives I have had on this wreck. Sea temp around 12/13c
Cox’n briefing divers before we leave My buddy checking out the wreck a few metres away from me The iconic boilers Found my buddy again further on the wreck behind the boilers The triple expansion engine which is off the main part of the wreck to the starboard side And down by the side of this engine, is what looks like a lid ???? My buddy high above me and the wreck Spot the edible crab, but tricky taking this photo as the current was picking up at this point Back to the boilers – populated by Bib And further away is my buddy, vis not so good around the boilers I had a bit of time checking out the Tom Pot Blennie’s and the Crawfish in this boiler Two divers, two Smb’s, waiting to be picked by by Nautical Nick our Cox for the day Buddy pair preparing to go diving The plan of the Rosehill
