Saturday April 17th, boat - the Great Escape. Open boat single day trip to Catalina Island. 4-5 foot swell from the West made for racking crossing in the morning which made some people queasy. Sunny, warm and calm conditions near shore that lasted the whole day. Mild current running from E. to W. Water temp 59. Vis 40 Ft. Only 20 divers on board. Dove the Bird Rock, Eagle Reef and Eagle point, just west of Isthmus. No Dive Buddy on this trip, just my son and I. The Great Escape is now at the 22nd street landing in San Pedro. Much nicer marina with a nice restaurant and bar overlooking the harbor. The view has been factored in to the prices of the food.
