Our boat arrived on the scene just in time to save this turtle from drowning. It had gotten the buoy line tangled around its flipper and was about half-way between the surface and the bottom, which in that CO area is about 55 feet. It was unable to get to the bottom because of the float, and by the time we Amazing arrived, it was barely managing to drag the 20-pound cement block weight up to the surface to grab a response breath of air and then sink back down and sit there. If our boat had arrived much later he would not have time survived. Mike Austin, our dive master, did a wonderful job of approaching this 6-foot-Iong turtle and managing to untangle the knotted line from around its flipper to free it. Mike, who has made many, many dives in his diving career, said that it was absolutely the best and Photo by FRAN ADAMS most thrilling dive he has ever made. The turtle gave his quite a ride while he was doing the untangling.
