Dive Surveys in FH-13 on June 13, 2010© Photos Posted by Mark Miller © Hi-Res Source
Dive Surveys were conducted on the Linda Susan, the Great Wicomico (Pogey Boat), and the Southern Star in FH-13. The Crew consisted of my wife Pam, my son Paul, and 2 of his friends Lauren Mitchell & Stormie Godbold. No Oil in sight, but plenty of fish and some great Diving. We had a 10-20 foot layer of murk on top, but it opened up to over 100 feet of visibility underneath. I called NOAA and they said Diving was not addressed, so as long as we did not take spearguns, Diving is allowed in the closure area. Go Figure, our Government says it's ok to swim in the oil, but not ok to catch and release fish. Perfectly logical - NOT. Total Trip encompassed 66.6 Miles, 33.8 Gallons of Fuel, and 10.5 hours.
