Here fishy fishy
Posted: Tuesday, 22 July 2008 |
Dived the Lunokhods, a huge fish processing vessel that came to grief on the rocks ironically directly below a lighthouse on the island of Bressay to the south of Lerwick Harbour.
The wreck was smashed to bits by the fury of the sea, wrapping steel around rock and tearing anything that man has built to be strong like tearing tissuepaper.
The remains of the wreck are covered in fish, and I like fish.....lots.
Anyhoo, here are my piccies

Looks a little cold, no getting away with a 2 mil shorty, but scenery like that would make the cold water worth while!

Incredible pictures! As someone who dives in the summer in the Caribbean with a wet suit, I can't imagine how cold the water is! The views certainly seem worth it though!

Fantastic weather it was for a dive too & I'll bet you it was a tad cooler down there than we were up on deck, shesh that was a hot trip ! Boat looks smashing by the way !! we were all commenting on how wonderfull she looks now

After coming to Orkney in May 2006 for 8 months, somehow I am still here. Running the MV Valkyrie in the summer and helping on the farm in winter is now my life.
