Got something stuck on anchor.

I used to visit Kwajalein Atoll once a yr for work. While there, I'd take advantage of the clear, warm water and available boats and dive with friends. We once dropped our anchor right next to a large WWII unexploded bomb. The anchor landed about 3' away! :shock: Needless to say we moved.

That last anchorage was a real BLAST! :twisted:

Boooooo... :P

Seriously, it was breathtaking diving. On the outside of the atoll, clean drop offs to oceanic depths. Pelagic galore. Only time/place I've ever dove with tuna. Of course there was also tons of sharks. Only time I ever had gray reefs aggressively charge at me, also. I've got pics somewhere. I even have some Japanese sake' bottles we recovered off the wreck of the Akibasan Maru also known as P buoy; sunk Jan 30, 1944.
