Hi,

Just want to add a bit to Marks comments above.

Mark and I have discussed this. We have dived together. The basic dive plan will be to dive the same gasses, time and indeed direction. We intend to be there for each other if the sh*t hits the fan, but, both of us agree whilst that is the case we are diving solo in the same place. No matter how well drilled or prepared you might be, it takes a rare individual who is prepared to risk his own life to save yours.
To carry one extra cylinder and allow yourself to be free of this dependance on another persons reaction seems like a stupid question to me. It is just simple logic. A safe option, and means I can add more nice warm argon to my suit at 6M.

Just an opinion,

Andrew
