Dive Notes:

High tide was at 10:30 Am for this intracoastal dive site. Visibility was not good. The jersey barriers and the barge were shifted and mangled and twisted together from the hurricanes in 2005. All the fish counters collected data from the northern portion of the site. Fish counters saw many big belted sandfish. 1 goliath grouper and a juvenile green turtle were observed at the site. Team had to be careful as a very large helicopter-bearing yacht named the White Cloud, was manuvering around the area with thrusters.
