Because my Camera is limited with Macro and Wide ankle options – I would like to present you some pictures from Daniel, a great Photographer. I am so fuckin jealous on his underwater housing. Thanx for the pics Daniel!
We had some Customers from the States who came for a special expedition on Roatan. They went down with the submarine like Jacque Cousteau discovered the oceans. They made a new world record : 2540 feet deep in the ocean!! They also made some movie nights about and from Cousteau which was great. If you ever get the chance to see the movie “the silent world” – you will be surprised how they discovered and dove the oceans. Crazy!
Everybody who knows me, travelled with me , lived with me - knows that I am a magnet for a kinds of accidents, robbing or other crazy happenings. I am also a talent of braking down things and loosing stuff.
One night after the night dive we surfaced with a group of divers – and our boat was gone. It didn’t take long till we realized that it drifted away from us – on the reef. The ocean was quite rough and the waves nearly made it flip over. Our captain was fighting on the boat but the engine wouln´t start anymore and he´s stucked on the reef. What a trap. Our boss came with the other boat to pick us up from the ocean and then the big rescue session started. It was crazy. And this time it was not my fault!!
In the end we saved the boat with only a few damages. “Shit happens” – that’s what our boss said in the end. He is great. Since now on everybody is practicing tying knots daily :)
The next day 2 people nearly drowned in our bay. 20 people were just watching them, then our guys from the shop saved them and brought them to the hospital. Unbelievable how many things can happen in this small place.
