The squeezes are gone... still had a good time solo getting aerobic armpit-neck deep rides on the RL wave train eddy line, and maybe got my head under 10 times in 3 hours. Bermuda south (ie the big convergence) just had no pull. I swam it a couple times with my feet down looking for suction but didn't find anything. Still more entertaining doing wavewheels and screwing around than getting back into the tupperware, but not a mystery destination by any means. The deep eddy with conveyer belt return service was still there and remains a highlight. Will update sinkspots to 2000 cfs as a minimum, that's what I'm waiting for to go back and try again.
"Arcadia was a band created as a project by the 80's English iconic pop band, Duran Duran, in 1985. It included Duran Duran members, Simon LeBon, Nick Rhodes, and Roger Taylor. The name of this band was chosen for the mystique surrounding Arcadia as a place of mystery and symbolic secrecy."

: Going back to check out the spot with less water, bubbler boys report no more wave train rides but bermuda south is stabilizing a bit at lower levels. ETA is 10:30 at the bridge, C ya on the water? -J
