Love the turtle. How big would you estimate him to be?

The one in the first pic was about 20" long or so and the second maybe 30".

Thanks guys, here are some more. The first one was coming straight at me and was just veering away when I took the pic. The others are a bit blurry...they were circling us for about 20 min or so and take turns swimming through us checking us out I guess. Kind of cool...I have seen sharks before diving but they didn't like us getting close and would keep their distance or take off.

Yeah the last one came real close, I was tempted to touch it but I thought that might not be the smartest thing to do, kind of like starting a reeftank. But hey, I never claimed to be that smart. All deadly seriousness aside it was only about 3 1/2 to 4' long, it didn't concern me as much as the first one that was coming right at me.
