23 Jul 1984 Fladda Oban Scotland 20 25 25 Iain Hosking Three stars Solo dive, with boat following bubbles (left surface marker reel in car). Search for 'Benghazi'. Started at west side of Fladda and swam south over kelp at 10m. Saw corkwing wrasse (blue stripes) and dogfish. Turned west to get into deeper water out of kelp. Down to 20m in teeth of current. Drifted with current across south end of Fladda. Saw nudibranch (Dendronotus frondosus) the length of my index finger. Surfaced when I realised the boat was no longer following. Scorching day. Dived on ebb tide. Vis good, greater than 30 feet. own, Geoff's tank
