New site - Coral still a'beeping! (mystery object
??)
Went out SCUBA to a new site; had a tip that old bottles etc had been found there amongst what looks like a very spread out pile of ballast stones.
In about 60ft of water, no visible timbers or large objects (and alas no sewer pipes
)
Spent two hours on the bottom (getting an hour from each tank is GOOD for me!) and finally hit loads of signals in a small 'basin" - I assume stuff has been pushed around and all ended up in one spot?
loads of 'coral beeping' and I assume from the shapes it will be shot and nails etc. All very well encrusted so at least its OLD!
However, I did get ONE MYSTERY ITEM; I actually fanned away the sand with my hand and there it was. I SO HOPE its a coin and not some trash from a passing tourist boat!!
its about one and a half inch in diameter, so assume its probably trash? (do coins come that big??)
will start to clean all the bits and update - if its worth doing so!!
