First Dive From the Boat! Setting up Scuba on Our Catamaran

We finally did it! Our first scuba dive off our Leopard 45 sailing catamaran achieved here in Saint Martin! The Milwaukee stick pump: https://amzn.to/4iNrN2g Trinidad Pro Performance Review Video: https://youtu.be/0qzm7i7meW4 After setting up our Bauer Junior II compressor, filling our first tank and putting the dive gear together, we took the plunge under the boat. From spotting an eagle ray and barracuda to using our gear to clean the hull before sailing, it was the perfect entry into liveaboard scuba diving. Now we just need to decide where our next dive adventure will be! (Hopefully not an anchor retrieval ?). This was a huge milestone in the adventure, and something we've worked towards for years. We're PADI Open Water certified, and this was our first dive since 2019, having carried all this gear with us since Europe 22. Prefer to support the channel as a 1-off?
