Capt Cary crusing Farnsworth Banks

Our first dive of the second day, the weather gods smiled and granted us access to the legendary backside of Catalina. It feels wilder back here, where rough conditions, surge and currents are common. I think everyone was surprised at how amazing the conditions were. Easily 80+ visibility on the first dive. Dive 6, Farnsworth Banks, Catalina
