Trip Summary: 
We have had some phenomenal trips out at sea today! The Bronze Whaler sharks were out full force, giving everyone on board quite a show. The sharks came quickly and our divers wasted no time getting into the cage! On some of our trips, we were fortunate enough to witness a Cape Fur seal and a Sevengill shark around the boat and we even had numerous Short-Tail stingrays making passes by the cage. All in all, a fantastic day out at sea for team MD and all of our brave divers. A big thank you to everyone who joined us on board today, it was a pleasure having you with us!
