Opening day at Dutch

With all the rain and storms in March, we were not able to get out on the water. A few of us broke down and headed to Dutch Springs for opening day. It was great to see everyone, and finally get wet. I expected the water to be around 38 degrees, but instead it was more like 43. Not bad for early April.
Vis was good, and like everyone else, I was checking out some gear modifications. There was a new reel, patches on the drysuit (I finally found all the holes), and a new dome port for the camera. Shooting a bag worked well, and I was able to get a few shots in before the camera started complaining about a leak. Better fresh water than salt water.

Oh cool pictures Dave. Took me a while to have a closer look (10 days on dry land
to find time for this.
