Are you a certified scuba diver and do you have your own scuba gear like wetsuit and dive gloves and dive hood and dive boots and dive fins and dive mask and scuba tank and bcd and regulator to breath from and breath underwater with scuba regulator who is your dive buddy for scuba diving and how long did it take you to do your scuba training and how does it feel to breath underwater with scuba regulator
Thank you very much for this video. As a scuba diver, I must say that this has to be one of the best videos I have seen about Monterey Bay. It made me want to come down and dive once a month on boat and off the shore. Now my question is. do you know about any dive charters that can take me out to see more of the Pelagic Marine Life. Once again, thank you for this amazing video. I am looking at Monterey Bay in such a different way now. Bearblessings
I’ve paddled wa’a (outrigger canoe) my whole life and being out on the ocean is one of the greatest connections to my kupuna (ancestors) I can think of and everytime I’m out there I feel my kupuna with me.
Wow in kanaka maoli or native Hawaiian we call the edible seaweed that grows in the ocean on the coast Limu the same way you pronounce Limuw. Anyone know the meaning of limuw and what it translates to?
Yea I too was amazed at how chill the fish all were with some big machine whirring around shining a big light in their turf. That appears to be THE hangout spot for the fish, Lol. Strength in numbers, right?
I had no idea Moody Gardens was as accredited of an aquarium as it was. VERY COOL! Glad to see they're involved with educating the local Houston-Galveston community.
Curious why we didn't finish raising the ship. Money? Time? Deterioration? We don't have the technology to raise it? Is there any way to restore the ship like others have done with wooden ships that have been raised? Curious about the thought process and I am NOT upset.
Silly question. Why not bring the rest of Monitor up? Cost too much? Not worth the time? It seems like your got through to the point of the "big lift" and stopped. We will do it later? Just wondering.
I am from the Bay Area and never heard about this location until now. This looks and sounds like a must dive destination. Do you know of any dive guides you can recommend for a day dive trip here
Thanks for the great video! I’ll be vacationing with my family in OBX this May24. I’m researching dive sites and the Monitor is top of the dive charter list. So much history, the USS Monitor Center is a bonus!
My uncle George Bellamy was the Bombardier on the plane that sunk the u701. He received the Distinguished Flying Cross for his ability. He is second from the left in the picture.
Thing looks great for as long as it was down there,those "arms" that push the pistons or levers or what not are in really bad shape,you can see how the corrosion has eaten away at them, corrosion is pure cancer and it will eat and eat and never be satisfied.
Awesome thank you from the great great great grandson of many Albrite/Hernandez/Martinez/Gomez/Alvarez family lineage. Respectfully RCALvarez 2023. We are not EXTINCT 🎉
