9 Jul 1986 | Helena Faulbaums | Belnahua | Oban | Scotland | 52 | 15 | 45 | Iain Hosking, Sarah McCracken | Down line to greenhouse. Swam aft (by mistake) till we saw the spare prop, then forward to the estimated position of Sarah's gauge. No sign. Looked for the second compass. No go either. Experimented with sawing off a porthole. No go. Sarah found a lead acid battery in a glass case which was plonked into my goody bag. She also saw a squid. On the 15m stop I managed to drop the battery. Damn. | Twin 55s |
