Dive Report: Dingerbot 16/5/12 We finned out to check a spot for a mooring, and since we were not too far away from the mooring she was on we finned out to the bouy and down we went to about 9 meters, my buddy had a hunch that she would be north east of the mooring and sure enough there she was, Live google map:
