Hi Rich, I hope you don't mind me sending this via techdiver - I tried to mail it directly but it bounced. Apologies to everyone on the list! > Aloha, read your post and was wondering which tube you > were referring to in your post! Know of a great one off Moku Mano > really nice about 100 to 150 yds long big enough to drive a truck in > dont think that is the one since it aint a shore dive and have > played in most of the ones on the north shore at one time or another. I know of three caves at Moke Manu. One has a small entrance at about 70 feet and three pretty-good size chambers. The last chamber is potentially dangerous. However, the cave I was referring to in the post is at Shark's Cove. Outside the "eleveator", turn right and go about 100 yards. There's a tube-cave that has two entrances, one on either end. Plenty of natural light (Note: not the really big tube near the left corner of the reef flat). In the back of that are entrances to two other tunnels. The one on the left might go, but there is a restriction that I've never tried to get passed. The one on the right has no major restrictions, and goes back quite a ways. Eventually it bends to the right where you get into freshwater. There is a low room with a very silty bottom. This is where I got into trouble, and this is where about a half dozen divers (usually Marines or visitors) have died in the last 12 years. Aloha, Rich
