the start plan was to take my breather down to the bottem36m with digs as chaperon but things with me were not right or may have been the breather but i wasn't happy and was getting confused a little past 23m?????????????? so came up a little then did the tour which was fine and dandy
finished the dive in happy spirits apart from hadn't completed what i wanted but all in all i think that was better as i could see problems coming on.
digs went to his car to pick up the obod which we had a look over and decided to give him a new fill of sofnolime so we rule out as many problems as possible before we get in the water, filled his 3lt with o2 from the van, and after a lotr of messing with the scrubber which is very critical with the filling as it has to be nearly mill perfect to seal properly, we do some checks 'pos and neg' a few leaks! but apart from that
he'll be good.....fingers crossed....
we get in the water on the slip way so we can take it slow and easy,
give a few OK's and slowly drop below the surface a few more OK's as we settle on the bottom a 4.5 m.
i notice digs is leaking! 1 leak from a dump valve on the lung HAS TO SORTED as there's a steady leak and a another from the mouth piece that could do with a good coat of glue!!
but all in all digs looked happy and very tecty with all that gire and he got some very curios looks when we where kitting up:-)i think the old timers were just reminiscing!!
the dive finished after 30 Min's with no problems>>>apart from digger play dead on me.....not very funny as he stops moving then slowly rolls ever face up arms out floating..........i go straight to his mask and look at him to see him bright eye and bushy tailed with a little smile.......next time you try that one you'll get the Polaris missile treatment and be sent up;-) shortly after we finished the dive.
blood great he survived!!
luck really as we emptied out a good pint or two of cocktail from the lung and inspected the scrubber which is pretty much soaked.
after a wile it was time to review the situation and think about what we wanted to do about the next dive.
oh dear!
the first dive on the o2breather was with digs on his twins with the breather slung over his front,but with the twins as bail out and bouionce
the second dive he wanted to go all but naked! no twins no bouioncy just the lungs and breather.....sorry..nooo...you'll take a 3lt sling with inflater,
this dive for me is a little on the edge as we know it's leakling and he's only 21" away from a cocktail!
this dive only lasted 15mins before the gurges were to bad to carry on....
well servived my man!!!!
digger i'll help in any way i can and by the way i've got ya hood and gloves
pm me your address and when they are dry i'll send them to you!
digger i'll dive with you any test any dive just dont dont do the belly up again!!
best regards john routley
