The Ventura College advanced dive class uses the Sunfish for it's class boat trips. This. trip was setup for a deep dive, navigation and a drift dive. We had almost a full boat. We first tried the backside of Anacapa, but there was just to much current for a deep dive (skills dive)so we ended up on the front side at outside Frenchy's in 115'ft. This worked out good with a few even seeing a Sunfish (Mola-Mola)and the vis was about 15'-20'.The 2nd dive was at East Cat Rock in 30' ft of water with about 15'-20' of vis. Some of the divers did navigation skills and a few others went looking for bugs (none taken). Our 3rd dive was a drift dive at South Central(backside of Anacapa, close to Aquarium). This was a great dive with good rock structure and about 25' of vis., but very few bugs were seen and only 1 was taken.! person did see a Black Sea Bass. I have personally seen 11 Black Sea Bass at one time at this site.That was an extraordinary sighting for me. Ken
The Sunfish is planning to start having some 1 day drift dive classes on the boat based on the way the college class is taught. The V.C. College advanced dive class has done many drift dives on the Sunfish. Drift diving is the "Fun and lazy way to dive". Check out the Sunfish calender and newsletter for class schedule.
