Went S off Larpa Point and at 5.5 mins came across a large concrete football shaped block and rope. Ended up between OHR and AR. Went to OHR and then worked our way back to AR then to near SHC. No PPHs and only the one USDP. From here went back along IR1 on N side to the painted anglerfish. From there back towards main reef and along to near AR. Then went N. Saw the artificial reef, most of the concrete domes are still the same as last time I saw them in 2006 just after they were installed. A failure as there have never been any fish around them when I have seen them. Back to shore and exit via the same spot as Tuesday. A fair dive. Visibillity very poor.
