Bottles 5 .5
Cans 7.5

Other things: 
Floating bed
2 Rubber tyre's
1 Sandbag
1 Sunglasses
1 Pair shorts
1 Scuba mask


Divers on the day were from Andros Conservancy and Trust, Small Hope Bay Lodge, and Forfar field Station.
Special thanks to Russell from Andros Island Divers for the laon of mesh and lift bags.
Also thanks to Miko Thompson of Bahamas National Trust, Felix Bowleg and Patrick Newton for helping on land
This was made possible due to a Community Grant given to Ancat from the Royal Bank of Canada.

This dive was successful because it was agreed amongst the divers that the 30 to 50 feet depths is now clear of trash, the divers have decided that a further dive needs to be carried out to take up the debris from the 70-90 feet depths, this will occur sometime in the New Year.
