Coolest thing I've done in my boat

This was scary the first time, but seriously a cool experience.
Lots of boats doing it so risk was minimal

That's incredible, the gap looks so small to start.

Not many of us have ever got to do that, unique me thinks. 8-)

Book 2 weeks off and get yourself down to camping Nautic Almata next year Ed. You won't regret it.
I'll post some footage when I have had time to edit it, of fish off the Island near Estartit. It's a nature reserve and teaming with fish.
We were feeding them with cheesy puffs and there we literally hundreds of fish swimmimg around the boat, and us when we got in the water. Super cool thing for that part of Europe.

Been there in a rib. Late 80's on a club diving trip.

Some fantastic diving along there.
