These photos are from Dec. 19, 2010. I visited the "Cut" last time, so this time I wanted to dive the "Day Marker". I met up with Mainland diver Andrew and we surface-swam out of the bay. Visibility was 20-30 feet. There were lots of small and medium-sized cloud sponges below 90 feet or so. My maximum depth was about 120 feet. I noticed a group of sponges that looked familiar from my Cut dive, so I think we swam all the way around the Day Marker and ended up below the Cut. Up around 60 feet deep, the reefs were covered with plumose anemones and feather stars.
