Diving at Race Rocks

Two images from the many of Divers at Race Rocks taken some time in the early 1980s?

Diving Service 1984? in Ubatuba

Ximena Van Gelder posted this image of the members of the Diving  Service( and a few others)  in what I think must have been 1984, since I see year 9s and 10s there, and I have numbered all 30 of us. but Ximena says year 8 ??   So anyway I hope to be able to put a name to every person.. tell me if I miss-labelled someone.. . Some of the images are a bit obscure but I am sure someone will recognize them . Email me if you can help fill in the blanks, correct spelling and include last names.
email: garryf then use the @ sign and then gmail.com (will that confuse the bots??)

Divers at Race Rocks

While doing the many dives to document the underwater life at Race Rocks for the proposed Ecological Reserve, the Lester Pearson College divers were hosted royally by Trevor and Flo Anderson. On this particular day, after enjoying a hot drink, Flo took this picture of us as we were mopping up the saltwater that our wetsuits had left on the floor as we left Flo’s kitchen.
