MOD 1 and SixGill 101

Well its over I finished my MOD1 for the AP Evolution.
This is certainly a horse off a different color.
My first impressions were how odd breathing on the loop was
fallowed by the speed or lack their of to the reaction time it takes
for buoyancy adjustments to take place.
our instructor sad we were doing really well for are first dives
but it just felt weird. then when we went on our first dive to 100 feet
we get to the I beams a favorite spot to dive here in Seattle.
only to be greeted by a 8 -10 foot Six gill and she stayed with us for a good four min.
i got a little nervous when she stared heading past the instructor and in my direction
at about seven feet it turned to fade into the dark green water.
then came more skills and more of you know the rest.
All in all the class went really well i feel confident in my training but cautious.
Im glad I had some one with so much expeiance as an instructor.
Thank you Peter

Time to dive!

When I did my first Rebreather trainiing (first dive) we saw a GPO in an area I had dove 100 times before and not seen one there. Now I wish I could see a six gill this year.
