Mark,
You are right about the gin clear water of the Med! It needs to be experienced to be believed. Two to three times a year we get similar vis in Florida (usually with a strong east wind) and it is a pleasure to dive. Seeing fish and ripples in the sand at 70 fsw makes you wanna dive!
The comment about the amfora was made only to point out that if you are ever visiting Greece or Italy and see antiquities (which is rather common if you dive in remote locations), you should leave them undisturbed. You could get yourself into some MAJOR trouble with the authorities otherwise. The "funny" thing is that there are several wrecks that a lot of the spearos and divers have reported and the Archeological Service hasn't done much to protect them.
Scott is doing well and we would love to come up to Hatteras. Still waiting to spear an African or a permit.
Angelos
