We experienced choppy sea during the night and the early morning, but nonetheless some small diver boats came out in the morning; about 7 crossed the ZTA heading north and 3 stayed in the ZTA. Shortly after 9:00 we saw a Navy helicopter crossing to the northeast. The last diver boat left shortly after 13:00 and there was no more small boat activity in the ZTA after.
