North Wales, The Llyn & Anglesey 2014

You're not thinking of diving at Lightning Rock off Porth Iago are you?

Those are probably some of the most, if not the most brutal currents you'll find on the whole of the Llyn - I think I remember hearing that Dario & Tecdave dived there once on the slack tide... might be wrong though - I foolishly took a kayak around there once... scary stuff..!

Not not there , haven't heard of that rock . Yeah places like that best dived in pairs at least if not a third ideally who will stay in the boat and pick you up if you end up getting pushed far away from tide, and be spot on with your slack timings.
 
Ha ha ha.... Yeah, done a bit of that myself..... Got a spare prop for your 9.8 if you ever need one. Mine is back in good health, looked worse than it was, all shiny underneath the years of caribbean neglect. Just remembered, have different prop on mine than the standard, faster acceleration to the plane but slower top speed..... I think..... Or maybe the other way round! Cant remember now.
 
Ive heard the best way to find them is with the prop !

Ha, I did that last time I was down - just mooching across a little "sandy" bay on my way to my favourite shallow North Coast spot when I felt a little ping on the prop - looked down and found I was flying over shallow rocks - scary few seconds as the boat decelerated!

Also found a beautiful plough anchor attached to 15 feet of nice stainless steel chain lodged in the rocks - obviously someone else thought it was a "nice sandy bay" too!
