abking.
fine report.
at first glance I thought "thats a lot of stuff loaded on the rack" but i see that it made sense to pack it all in and have a nice shing-dig.
I see you hedged and packed along the chicken quarters to be safe..
thanks for sharing the views. I need to get the ab report card for  next season.
are you diving in only a 3mm?

I dove in 3 mils in early August and didn't even need a weightbelt, Dave.  It was awesome, but I was shivering after 30 minutes or so.  I had 7 mils on Sunday and almost all other dive days.

I'm thinking I need to cave and get one of the fancy closed-cell Picasso or Yazbeck suits as they apparently afford more flexibility and overall comfort.

Being an honorable sportsman is way more important than what you catch.

Good to see you got out before the storm, Looked like a great outing all the way around, abs, fish, food, sun and son. 

After many years and many suits, I got a Picasso about 3 years ago, all I can say is OMG, didn't know suits got that comfortable,

Abking, you don't mess around when you hit the beach do you?
Great post and pics - spectacular scenery up there!
You are lucky to live where you do. East of Japan.
