Had to wave off a few fishers already with the divers in the water.



I bet, the rip has been in that area for several weeks.

Good buddy of mine was there for over a year with Broadmoor Design working on it. Should become one helluva FAD (fish attracting device) in a year or so after the food chain attaches to the underwater legs! Between Mars, Ursa, and now Olympus, gonna look like a parking lot for tuna and marlin fishermen out there.

Head 50 miles due south out of South Pass and you cant miss it! Just more amazing engineering in the GOM.

I can't imagine how much the upkeep cost on these things is. Amazing to think of all the logistics behind these machines.
