Club dive with St George Underwater Centre.

Entered at The Monument, descended to the sand line and headed back towards the beach (west then south-west). We exited at the beach,

This was another dive to check the repairs I had done on the housing. The housing did not leak at all, even when I jiggled the sub-command dial control.
