Hi Divers,

Why dive Snapper Ledge? Well, one of our customers has the answer for you, in his own words and own video. Chuck Lewis, along with his wife/dive buddy/trusty assistant Mellie were diving on Sept 19th with us. Captain Neal, along with Chris as first mate and Brad as DiveMaster took the Tropical Adventure out Snapper Ledge on the Morning of Sept 19th. Everyone got to enjoy the site, and see all of the life including�one little�surprise….. Little?!?! A Hammerhead swam right by all the divers!!! Chuck was the man on the spot with the video camera and got the money shot! We of course asked him for the footage, and he said he’d be happy to do a little editing and give me something to put up here for all to enjoy. I know he’s not thrilled that he was not able to add music or spend enough time really setting up the sequences exactly the way he wanted because he was pressed for time, but I think it came out pretty good under the circumstances! All I did was slap the Rainbow Reef intro and outro on it, so he gets all the credit.. I enjoyed watching it, I’m sure you will enjoy it too.�

The video is about 8 minutes, has TONS of fish,�nice stingray footage,�a nice conch lugging her shell across the ocean floor and there�is about 30 seconds of good Hammerhead footage in the middle that is worth waiting for.�Thanks again to Chuck and Mellie!
