Lost Glasses

Highlander · 08-09-2015, 07:38 PM

In the hast of a warm summer evening my wife dove off the back of the boat at our dock only to come up and say "where are my glasses?" Well they were on her face and now reside at the bottom of the lake. We have looked as best we can with mask & snorkel to no avail. Wonder if there are any divers in the Alton Bay area who might take a look. It is 10' to12' deep. Any advice appreciated.

Maybe you can try a really bright, battery operated searchlight shined down there at night. It might give you a little flash to swim down to.

I was thinking along the same lines but doing it under water. I'd suggest trying it while still a bit of daylight so the swimmer does not get disoriented. If you don't have a water-proof flashlight you can put a small one in a zip-lock baggie or plastic wrap. This should do the trick.

Good luck!
