Wind: 10knot northerly
Tide: Ebbing
Conditions: Great day at the surface but strong currents.
Visibilty: 10m+
Water Temp: 18.4c
Bottom Time: 60minutes
Max Depth: 14m
Details: I decided to check out the western side of the annulus and came across the admiralty anchor. Trying to get back around the front of the wall after finishing the dive was near impossible. I felt like a cartoon character clinging to the rocks face first into the current with my legs trailing behind me. The currents got to be respected here, and always a good idea to have boat pickups available.
