      @Giles at what resort are you staying and what liveabord? Central Raja has some of the strongest currents I experienced so far, but the marine life came in abundance. Reef hooks are indeed needed and timing of water entry is everything. I had 3 times when I missed the mark just by jumping from the other side of zodiac from the guide. Those 2 meters really made allot of difference. I had to work really hard to catch up.

        Thanks for the tip re: currents. We have done Socorro where they are really extreme and required negative entry. A few places in the Maldives (Channels of course), they are really big too.

                        And now some drone action. I was unsuccessfuly trying to upload them earlier, and after getting help from @AdamJ here they are. I still need to do one at the time. The network sucks.

                                        Thank You lads! I have some more stuff to share but I need to do some colour grading so it looks proper.
                                        Now we wait for what @Giles and @Madame-Buttonfly will show us.
                                        I’m now en route to Tajpej (so nice that there is WiFi onboard) with 1,5h delay and crossing fingers that I catch my flight to Munich.
