Dave Givey: Mission Day #2: June 13th, 2006

Mission 2- MK-16 rebreather with drysuit. I dove the USIA drysuit (laminite shell) with integrated gloves and soft booties. Corey ripped a hole in the right hand of the integrated dryglove so it became a constant source of leaks throughout the whole dive. Visibility was excellent as a colder thermocline moved through. Wildlife was plentiful. We tightened 2 turnbuckles on the forward end of the habitat and covered all turnbuckles with hose. Saw a nice green eel and a nurse shark.  Dive time- 3 Hours.
