So Jake took his underwater camera with him on the move and here they are (hopefully in order):

Din from the Bonaire Marine Park is seen in most of the pics. Roeland from WannaDive was also helping out.

Interesting note: They strap the lines to the front of the boat and drive the boat in reverse to the new location. Go figure.

Wow, cool pics Linda! Thanks! I like the one where the mooring block is coming off the bottom...looks like it is a rocket! LOL!

Makes sense to tie it off on the bow, and drive in reverse...otherwise you might ending up fouling the prop with the line or lift bag if it got too close....THAT would not be a pretty picture!

Great pictures! The hole off Charlotte is visible, very well. Now I see in 'real life' a lift balloon . I only did calculations for it, in my theoretical part of the dive training, lol..

Loved the pics - thanks for posting!!!

I agree with Cynde - my favorite is when the mooring starts to lift off the bottom!!!

Jake and Linda, Thanks for taking the time to take and post the pictures of the cam being moved. You must be so busy with the move and all. It is greatly appreciated. I sure do hope that Charlotte went for the free ride to the new location! :-)

Maybe Charlotte was still in the hole when it was lifted? We can dream can't we! Thanks for the pictures!
