I had to laugh yesterday - what could go wrong did go wrong. I have to say though at the end of the day I still feel lucky to do what I do for a living.
Problems with the boat (electrical issues), burning myself on the battery, more electrical issues, late from the dock, a crab pot wrapped around the prop, getting an AI (Assistant Instructor) late back to the dock to teach a class, moving a lot of tanks, losing an engine on the boat just as I am docking, and not having any water on the dock to wash the boat down.
The funniest part of the day came though when I called Scott to let him know the issue with the boat and left him a voice message. A little later he called me back and I let him know that I didn't even wash the boat down. He said that is funny, I think I know what happened. I think the boat is in the wrong slip." I said "What?"
Yes, that's right, on top of everything else, I put the boat in the wrong slip. I could argue that the slips all look the same, and it was close (only two slips away), but really it came down to a long day and being tired. Off I headed and moved the boat to the right slip. Of course all the neighbors there had to come out for a good laugh.
Got two dives in, one on M8 and one on Silvertooth. It was still a good day!
M8 - temp 64 degrees, viz 20-25', lots of fish.
Silvertooth - temp 65 degree, viz 10-15', a lot of colorful sponges and corals growing there. Looking forward to my night dive on Wednesday.
