Coral Sea Trip 2011 just finished and luckily we had some blue sky despite the major floods that occurred south Queensland. Our divers met up with legendary Aussies Rob Torelli and Andy Ruddock who took us out for an adventure of a lifetime.
The boat we chartered was 5-star all the way! Captain Pete and his crew Kate, Oscar, and Kevin did a superb job caring for us all on board the luxurious 60 ft Phoenix. Lots of room, flat screen tv, a/c, good food made our journey so much easier.
I think we had enough spearguns to catch anything we wanted. The challenge was being able to stone your catch amidst the many sharks.
Our target species were pelagics and the boys did well in providing fresh sashimi everyday. There was lots of reef action as well and we were able to film a 3 pronging segment.
I was able to get a lucky shot off one dogtooth. This was one of the smaller ones taken, but good enough for me. We got some great footage to come on a future episode of Hawaii Skin Diver Television. Stay tuned for more photos and stories to come...time to unpack!
