De BluwaterBob , 07-08-2012

Fun Dive - We were looking for a quick "tune-up" dive that we could do from our 26' cruiser and decided to try the Mass. several people had told us it was not worth the gas out there. Wrong, True, it is not a 90'+ dive but the marine life was very abundant, depth averaged from 26' to 30'. Only thing is you have to pay attention to the fishermen... bout ran into a drop line LOL.. Fun and easily accessible dive!
