Dive 51, Pier Cellars, Plymouth, England, 30/04/2006

In 15:28, dive time 50 minutes, max depth 10.3 metres.

Second SeaSearch dive from rib, also very enjoyable - like we have "permission to see". Drop into square wave topology with sand/gravel bottoms, rocky reef/turf sides & kelp tops. 2 spot gobies & spiny starfish, then it's great to see many devon cup corals on rock walls. Cotton spinner, thin filaments of strawberry worm, boring sponge, some lovely fan worms (bispira volutacornis) on rock wall, one pretty & small white anemone (actinothoe sphyrodeta), a velvet crab hiding in a crack, cotton spinner, sea mat on kelp... Also long & short fragments of old submarine cables, some fishing line (monofilament) & a lure. Again difficult to get into rib - skipper says 'kick hard' as he pulls - I do, & lose another fin :-(. Now I'll dive with 2 colours!
