Prepping for another day of exploration… while I pack up ready to head home for the season.

Out of the deep. Lingyu He and I decompressing after some exploration.

Heading to 80m to investigate a Roman ram from 241 BC.

The conditions are just terrible.

We had a great dive this morning. Down to 80m to check an ancient ram that’s been sitting on the sea floor since the battle on 10 March 241 BC.

Home for the next couple of weeks.

Today we say ciao Lipari, and head to Favignana.

We had our final dive in Capistello Bay this morning, finishing some survey measurements. Now we’re all packed for Favignana tomorrow.

Beautiful weather and calm seas for a few dives surveying the Capistello Bay wreck. We cleaned up some points and added a couple of ancient Roman anchors to the survey.

On my way back to Lipari and Favignana to dive Capistello Bay and The Battle of Egadi site for GUE and the Soprintendenza del Mare of Sicily.

Some information on the connection between PFO and IEDCS.

A topic close to my heart…

Over the last few years, I’ve been part of a marine archaeology project in Sicily, for GUE and the Soprentendenza del Mare.

While we prepare for this season’s expedition, Chicco, the project lead is opening an exhibition to make the InAccessible accessible.

Enjoy. I sure do.

Why lie about remaining air supply?

An interesting anecdote and discussion of the effect of fixed vs growth mindsets on learning.

Happy 20th Anniversary! Some updates from Global Underwater Explorers.

Congratulations to new GUE diver, Gordon Tan, who passed GUE Fundamentals at Perth Scuba, Western Australia.

We had a great time in the west, overcoming some challenging conditions for a successful course.
