why there was a dive flag (buoy) marker on the reef in front of the yellow sub dive site today (6hrs)? Thanks

Uh, I am here in the states, can only guess from here, I would suggest asking the folks at Yellow Sub and they would be happy to answer ya.

Maybe they were giving a lesson? Doing skills? How far was the marker?

parallel to the 1st boat, past the "pool" markers.

Brenda, ask the dive shop and let us know. We can only guess at a correct or accurate answer.

it's just that we'll be there in less than 3 wks, haven't seen this there before, and thought maybe some research or something was going on, not wanting to interfere, or step on any toes! Like I said just curious. thanks

brenda I moved this thread to a better place and maybe the dive shop will see it.

Oh come on Debbie, let's all guess and speculate, that's what everyone does anyway (just kidding). For some reason I can't pull up the webcams on either EI or Firefox, is it still there?

It was there for a little while on Sunday. Likely a diver was towing it to alert boats to divers down is about all I can figure.

Ah...I re-read Brenda's posting, I thought she was actually ON island and asking. Didn't see the webcam picture, so cannot comment. Still think asking the dive shop is an idea though.

Brenda, went through the archives, not sure what time it was you saw it, but is this it?
|
By Debbie B. ~ Jersey Gal (Supreme BonaireTalker - Post #8981) on Monday, March 23, 2009 - 11:37 am: |
If so, my "guess" would be a dive flag being dragged by some divers. Looks like it on the center right of the pic there. Best I can come up with from the archives.

Thanks Debbie, glad I didn't post,,,, um, I'm in Canada,,typed it in many times,but, resisted the urge, and erased it. I'm not that kinda talker. I have the cam on as a screen saver, as I work. The flag did go out with divers and left the screen, then on the way back it was secured and stayed there all day (6hrs). That's why I thought it may have been some kinda marker for research. Anyway,,,,,I'm over it! Curiosity isn't always all it's cracked up to be. I figure if there's an issue at a site, we'll be informed beforehand. Thanks all! Bre
