Didn't get to St Mary (I don't think - our boat downed anchor in a variety of spots around the Floridas)...but factors such as crown of thorns starfish and the tsunami in some areas have had an effect on the general health of the reefs. Whilst I went for the wrecks (fantastic!), I should state that the reefs were good, but, as the operator mentioned nowhere near what they were 4 or 5 years ago. Did I mention that the coldest water we could find was 30 deg Celsius?
