Diver's Notes

After surfacing, the current got crazily strong and we were swept away by a super fast speed. The dive boat couldn't locate us and caused some panic as we got swept even further. Another dive boat spotted us and helped us call for them. It was the first time I felt fear after resurfacing and it was quite an experience.
